Reason: This article duplicates significant parts of a paper that had already appeared in Int. J. Radiat. Oncol. Biol. Phys., 68 (2007) 592–600, doi:10.1016/j.ijrobp.2007.02.005. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that the paper is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and we apologize to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
