ESCC: epidural spinal cord compression; NOMS: Neoplasm, Oncologic, Mechanical, Systemic; cEBRT: conventional external beam radiation therapy. * For the purposes of ESCC decision-making as part of the NOMS framework, tumors are classified as "relatively radiosensitive" and "relatively radioresistant" based on their predicted responsiveness to cEBRT in the dose ranges that are within spinal cord tolerance.
