Why the study?
Can the relative seriality model predict long-term cardiac mortality after radiotherapy for early breast cancer?
Can the relative seriality model predict long-term cardiac mortality after radiotherapy for early breast cancer?
The relative seriality model can be applied to estimate the probability of excess cardiac mortality based on dose-volume histograms in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy.

May aid DVH-based cardiac risk estimation in breast radiotherapy; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
Gagliardi et al. (1996) studied this question.
