2013-04-01 08:38 Csaba Pinter It seems that this task is bigger than just applying some formulas on our data. My opinion is that a Radiobiological Modeling module is needed that can compute all the proven TCP and NTCP models from the Warkentin2004 article, and contains the default parameter sets. This module would also compute EUD, so that wouldn't be a separate module.
