Preferred Label : DVH Metric Value;
NCIt definition : The value of the dose-volume histogram (DVH) metric. This includes the Time Repair
Weighting Factor value used. For example, if the dose was 50.2 EQD2Gy, but the institution
reported using a Time Repair Weighting Factor equal to 0.5 because the dose was delivered
2 years previously, then the value reported would be 25.1 . As a result, both component
and cumulative values reflect the Time Repair Weighting Factor values used, and the
value reported reflects the dose the clinician believes reflects the current biological
damage.;
Alternative definition : OORO: Value of the DVH metric. This does include the Time Repair Weighting Factor
value used. For example, if the dose was 50.2 EQD2Gy, but the institution reported
using a Time Repair Weighting Factor equal to 0.5 because the dose was delivered 2
years previously, then the value reported would be 25.1 . As a result, both component
and cumulative values reflect the Time Repair Weighting Factor values used, and the
value reported reflects the dose the clinician believes reflects the current biological
damage.;
