The effect of designing a rotational planning target volume on sparing pharyngeal constrictor muscles in patients with oropharyngeal cancer

BACKGROUND: Planning target volume (PTV) has been used to account for variations in tissue, patient and beam position. In oropharyngeal cancers, an isotropic expanded PTV has been used. AIM: The aim of this study was to design a new margin formula that would cover the space occupied by an oropharyng...
