The Lyman-Kutcher-Burman model seeks to estimate the probability of complications in healthy tissue (NTCP) by delivering a probability curve according to the dose:
The estimation of the probability of complications in the Lyman Kutcher Burman Model (LKB) assuming that the probability of failure can be represented as a gauseana around dose
The probability of failure of an organ is estimated based on the deviation of the effective dose calculated for the healthy tissue
The
The integral of the Gaussian can be approximated by the expression
so it is necessary that in the first approximation the NTCP is:
The dose is calculated by considering the fraction of the
Thus, the effective dose is:
