Comparison of dosimetric parameters for predicting radiation‐induced cataract in paediatric patients
Lens Dmean ≥10 Gy showed the highest ability for predicting radiation-induced cataract in paediatric patients. Net reclassification improvement (NRI) suggested that changing lens dose constraint from Dmax <7 Gy to Dmean <10 Gy would miss 7% of cataract cases but avoid 28% of unnecessary restrictions. Adopting a mean lens dose <10 Gy was suggested as a constraint for lens dose.
