Dose-volume histogram (DVH) shows the relationship between dose and volume in three dimensional treatment planning, and it is a valuable tool in evaluating the treatment plan of stereotactic radiosurgery. But conventional DVH is not suitable in the case when the normal organ function is non-uniformly distributed within the organ. So we propose the use of functional dosevolume histograms (fDVHs). Functional dose-volume histograms are proposed as development of the conventional dose-volume histograms for qua...
