A cohort of 114 patients with NHL in the cervicothoracic region, treated between 2015 and 2021 at the University Hospitals of M{\"u}nster, Hamburg, and Essen, with involved site radiation therapy (ISRT), were included. Among them, 68 patients with aggressive NHL (a-NHL) received consolidative radiation therapy with 24–54 Gy following (R-)CHOP chemotherapy. Additionally, 46 patients with indolent NHL (i-NHL) underwent radiotherapy with 22.5–45.0 Gy. Two treatment plans were prospectively created for each patient (a-NHL: 30.0/40.0 Gy; i-NHL: 24.0/30.0 Gy). NTCP were then calculated using the optimized LKB model.

In addition, it was shown that reduced radiation doses can influence the NTCP of acute side effects depending on the aggressiveness of NHL significantly.
