• Standard Fractionation: Once daily, 5 days/week, no more than 2 Gy/ fraction. ° Split Course: RT with planned treatment breaks. • Altered Fractionation: Anything other than standard fractionation. • Accelerated Fractionation: Any fractionation schedule that gives >10 Gy/ week. Subtypes include: ° Pure accelerated fractionation (2 Gy/fx, 6-7 fx/week) ° Accelerated hypofractionation (>3 Gy/fx) ° Accelerated hyperfractionation (>1 fx/day) • Hypofractionation: Increased fraction size, with or without decreased number of fractions/week.
