A new finite element approach for near real‐time simulation of light propagation in locally advanced head and neck tumors
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Several clinical studies suggest that interstitial photodynamic therapy (I‐PDT) may benefit patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC). For I‐PDT, the therapeutic light is delivered through optical fibers inserted into the target tumor. The complex anatomy...
