Supports linear dose-response for CHD prediction in Hodgkin lymphoma survivors; leaves open whether dose minimization improves outcomes.
Is there a radiation dose-response relationship for the risk of coronary heart disease in survivors of Hodgkin Lymphoma?
A linear radiation dose-response relationship predicts CHD risk in Hodgkin Lymphoma survivors, highlighting the importance of early risk factor management.
Nimwegen et al. (2015) studied this question.
