The influence of tumor volume, uptake of radioactive compounds in cells of tumors and normal tissues, and characteristics of the emitted ionizing particles on the efficacy of systemic radiation were studied. The influence of these variables was assessed using a point kernel approach combined with a distance histogram technique.
