Table 5 Summary of the parameter values that have been reported by different groups for the LKB model, regarding the endpoint of xerostomia. The difference between the physician-scored (CTCAE) patient-reported (PRO-CTCAE) scoring systems is also indicated. Those model parameter sets were applied on the current dataset and the corresponding AUC, OR (with 95% confidence interval and dose threshold) values were calculated

From: NTCP modeling and dose–volume correlations for acute xerostomia and dry eye after whole brain radiation
