title: A method to adjust radiation dose-response relationships for clinical risk factors.
abstract: Several clinical risk factors for radiation induced toxicity have been identified in the literature. Here, we present a method to quantify the effect of clinical risk factors on radiation dose-response curves and apply the method to adjust the dose-response for radiation pneumonitis for patients with/without pre-existing pulmonary co-morbidities.
