Commentary: Stereotactic body radiation therapy utilization emits answers to the volume–outcome relationship

[摘要] The volume–outcome relationship for lung cancer resection is complex, and the strength of the association depends on the details of the statistical modeling approach, the manner in which volume is measured, and the outcome of interest.1 Institutional stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) practice patterns were recently suggested as an important component of the lung cancer resection volume–outcome relationship.2 In this study published in the Journal, Till and colleagues3 have expounded upon the volume–outcome relationship for lung cancer resection by accounting for institutional SBRT experience.
