RESUMEN
Radiation-induced acute and late toxicity depends on several parameters. The type, severity and duration of morbidity are mainly related to irradiated volume, total dose and its fractionation and the intrinsic radiosensitivity of the patients. The follow-up of these toxicities is essential. However, unlike many specialties, morbidity and mortality reviews procedures are not developed as part of quality governance programs in radiation therapy departments for the monitoring of toxicity which sometimes hinder the patients' quality of life. One French survey published within the framework of the project entitled Prospective Registration of Morbidity and Mortality, Individual Radiosensitivity and Radiation Technique (Proust), conclude that there was a lack of knowledge of morbidity and mortality reviews and considerable confusion between these reviews and other quality processes without perspective for the local morbidity and mortality reviews development in a large number of the participated centers. In this article, we will discuss the procedure of the "ideal morbidity and mortality reviews" and its implementation through a monocentric experience started in 2015. Thus, the Proust project is a unique opportunity to implement and standardize a national morbidity and mortality reviews implementation in radiation therapy departments by involving the French regions.
