Abstract Background The dose distribution to the rectum delineated as solid organ rectal wall and rectal surface in 3D conformal 3D-CRT and intensity-modulated radiotherapy treatment IMRT planning for localized prostate cancer was evaluated. Materials and methods In a retrospective planning study 3-field 4-field and IMRT treatment plans were analyzed for ten patients with localized prostate cancer. The dose to the rectum was evaluated based on dose-volume histograms of I the entire rectal volume DVH 2 manually delineated rectal wall DWH 3 rectal wall with 3 mm wall thickness DWH3 4 and the rectal surface DSH . The influence of the rectal filling and of the seminal vesicles anatomy on these dose parameters was investigated. A literature review of the dose-volume relationship for late rectal toxicity was conducted. .
