I apply FDR—a recently introduced four-dimensional approach to quantum field theories (QFTs)—to the computation of the NLO QCD corrections to in the large top mass limit. The calculation involves all key ingredients of QCD—namely ultraviolet, infrared, and collinear divergences, besides
renormalization—and paves the way for successful use of FDR in massless one-loop QFT computations. I show in detail how the correct result emerges in FDR, and discuss the translation rules to dimensional regularization.
