  1. CANTERBURY / WESTLAND ABSTRACT This case follows the Radiation Treatment Planning process for a recurrent GlioblastomaMultiforme Brain patient. This patient received two courses of RT to the same site resulting in a total dose of 100Gy to the brain. Interesting points to be covered include patient history, RO prescription choice and associated evidence, planning process and patient implications.
