Impact of head and neck cancer adaptive radiotherapy to spare the parotid glands and decrease the risk of xerostomia
BACKGROUND: Large anatomical variations occur during the course of intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC). The risks are therefore a parotid glands (PG) overdose and a xerostomia increase. The purposes of the study were to estimate: - the PG ov...
