Around 10% but then I'll take the optic chasm to 70 Gy plus in order to adequately treat the tumor. I have a patient under treatment now in that situation. So I do what it takes. If it requires more heterogeneity, so be it.

For H&N mucosal tumors, I try to limit the heterogeneity to less than 105%.  I don't have great data to support this, other than reviews of our institutional data with this approach.  Very low comparative rates of reactive PEG insertion, low rates of hospitalization, and low rates of g...
