　　A new biological effective dose (BED) is proposed in this note.This new BED definition takes into account the fact that dose distribution is non-uniform for tumors in patients' treatments.This new BED can be calculated from the dose histogram distribution of a tumor.Thus it is practical and useful for clinical applications.
