Abstract excerpt
'Radiogenomics' is the study of genetic variation associated with response to radiotherapy. Radiogenomics aims to uncover the genes and biologic pathways responsible for radiotherapy toxicity that could be targeted with radioprotective agents and; identify genetic markers that can be used in risk prediction models in the clinic. The long-term goal of the field is to develop single nucleotide polymorphism-based...
