The Macro Monte Carlo (MMC) method has been developed to improve the speed of traditional Monte Carlo calculations without significant loss in accuracy. MMC runs about one order of magnitude faster for clinically relevant irradiation situations. For routine use in a clinical environment a further sp
The expected quality-adjusted survival (QAS) for an index population with a speci"c disease can be estimated by summing the product of the survival function and the mean quality of life function of the population. In many follow-up studies with heavy censoring, the expected QAS may not be well estim
