It must be noted that dose tolerance limits and dose-volume histogram (DVH) analysis only show part of the overall situation. The location where the high dose occurred could sometimes be more important than how high the dose is.t must be noted that dose tolerance limits and dose-volume histogram (DVH) analysis only show part of the overall situation.

Hi Kent. Exponential form simply means a numeric form involving exponents. One way to write such a number is by recognizing that each position represents a power (exponent) of 10. So you can first break it up into separate pieces.
Exponential notation is a mathematical shortcut. It is a method for writing an equation that shows a certain term multiplied to itself many times. The exponent is written as a superscript number after the base number. The exponent tells how many times the base is to be multiplied to itself. In this picture, the base number is the 2 and the exponent is the three. The notation means that 2 is to be multiplied to itself 3 times.
