Surveying retracted studies and notices within the field of radiation oncology

The purpose of this study was to characterize retracted studies within the field of radiation oncology. We searched multiple databases and found the major reason for retraction was methodological misconduct and honest scientific error. The median time to retraction was 44 months. However, 42 studies (72%) were still cited after retraction notices were published.
