The treatment of locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC) requires a multimodality
approach. Radiotherapy with combination of chemotherapy are demonstrated to be …

Introduction The advances of modern radiotherapy have emerged with the development of
conformal radiotherapy techniques, such as the three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy …

Background: About 74% of head and neck cancer (HNC) patients need to undergo either
definitive or postoperative radiation therapy because of aggressive nature of disease. The …

Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) has rapidly become standard of care in the
management of locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). In this …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy and toxicity of accelerated radiotherapy with concurrent
chemotherapy in advanced head-and-neck squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS AND …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The use of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is
now widely advocated for the treatment of head-and-neck cancers, to increase the …

Objective Radiotherapy techniques have evolved from 3D conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT)
to intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) where boost fields are delivered either …

Background With conformal radiotherapy techniques, acute and late toxicities can be
reduced because of better dose conformity and reduced doses to normal tissue. With …

The purpose of this article is to review the role of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in
the standard management of patients with head and neck cancer through a critical review of …

Intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) is a modern radiotherapy technique that was
implemented in the mid-1990s. It allows closer shaping of dose, to target volumes, thereby …
