Adverse late health outcomes among children treated with 3D radiotherapy techniques: Study design of the Dutch pediatric 3D‐RT study

Abstract Background Adverse late health outcomes after multimodal treatment for pediatric cancer are diverse and of prime interest. Currently available evidence and survivorship care guidelines are largely based on studies addressing side‐effects of two dimensional planned radiotherapy. Aims The Dutch pediatric 3D‐planned radiotherapy (3D‐RT) study aims to gain insight in the long‐term health outcomes among children who had radiotherapy in the 3D era. Here, we describe the study design, data‐collection methods, and baseline cohort characteristics. Methods and Results The 3D‐RT study represents... Mehr ...
