Actually, at this point, I've pretty much gone to 400 cGy x 5 fx for most everything, with the exception of really nasty disease where I might do an SIB to the GTV to 500 x 5 while the PTV gets 400 x 5, or someone going straight from XRT to hospice where I'd give 800 x 1.

I still have a gut feeling ...
