We just looked at
dose surface vs. dose mapping

Now look at
dose surface vs. DVH

If DVH says:

  • 100% of struct. receives
  • dose of Xor greater.

Then:

  • X dose surface should
  • fully enclose the struct..

Having just compared dose surfaces with dose mappings, we now compare dose surfaces with dose volume histograms (DVH).  For example, if the DVH says that 100% of a structure receives a dose of X or greater, the X dose surface would be expected to fully enclose that structure.
