"As low as" or "As lower as"??
What about this particular sentence?:
" We want to deliver enough dose to efficiently control the tumor after a treatment time lower than 60 minutes while keeping the maximum doses in healthy tissues AS LOWER/LOW AS possible"
Thanks! ";)

Hi Eugenia,
The sentence you’re looking for is “As low as”, que podría traducirse como (contextualmente) “lo más bajo posible”
If you wanted to use the Word Lower then you could use the expression “The Lower… the better”.
Good luck.

The "as... as" pattern is used to show how things are similar. But "lower" indicates a difference between two things. So you need "as low as": both on the same low level.
