Abstract

The field of radiogenomics has evolved substantially over the last few years. Cooperative research groups have been established and high throughput genotyping has become increasingly feasible and affordable. Nevertheless, a number of clinical and dosimetric issues need to be carefully considered in order to fully exploit these new possibilities.
