PURPOSE: Locoregional (LR) failures near the base of the skull, and their relationships to
the targets in the high neck, were examined in a series of patients who underwent intensity …

Purpose: To analyze the patterns of local-regional recurrence in patients with head and neck
cancer treated with parotid-sparing conformal and segmental intensity-modulated …

Purpose: To analyze the patterns of locoregional failure in patients with head-and-neck
cancer treated with inverse planning intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Methods and …

PURPOSE: To discuss the implications of three examples of periparotid recurrence after
definitive intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for head and neck cancer (HNC) …

PURPOSE: To describe the spatial distribution of local-regional recurrence (LRR) among
patients treated postoperatively with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for head and …

Purpose: Various published reports involving intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) plans
developed using automated optimization (inverse planning) have demonstrated highly …

Purpose: We present the guidelines for target volume determination and delineation of head-
and-neck lymph nodes based on the analysis of the patterns of nodal failure in patients …

PURPOSE The volume treated with postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) is a mediator of
toxicity, and reduced volumes result in improved quality of life (QOL). In this phase II trial …

BACKGROUND Radiation treatment volumes in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma
(HNSCC) are controversial. The authors report the outcomes, patterns of failure, and quality …

Background and purpose A multi-center prospective randomized clinical trial has been
performed investigating whether a reduction of the dose to the elective nodal sites in head …
