Objectives There is paucity of data on the efficacy of volumetric modulated arc therapy
(VMAT) in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The objective of the present …

Background/Aim: Radiotherapy is a common approach for treating squamous cell carcinoma
(SCC) of the oropharynx. We aimed to analyze toxicity and outcome of patients affected by …

AIM: To prospectively compare volumetric intensity-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and
conventional intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) in coverage of planning target …

Introduction Radiotherapy for head and neck cancer (HNC) has evolved rapidly in the past
decades from conformal three‐dimensional technique (3D‐CRT) to intensity‐modulated …

Objectives We aimed to evaluate the outcomes of the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group
8502 “QUAD shot” regimen using volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for incurable …

Purpose Intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy
(VMAT), two advanced modes of high-precision radiotherapy (RT), have become standard of …

Results The homogeneity index (HI) and conformity index (CI) for each pair of IMRT and
VMAT plans were not significantly different. The maximum dose to the spinal cord was not …

PURPOSE: A planning study was performed to evaluate the performance of volumetric
modulated arc radiotherapy on head and neck cancer patients. Conventional fixed field …

Conclusion: The present study demonstrates the feasibility of VMAT in association with
platin or cetuximab in HNSCC and reports VMAT-related acute and late toxicities for the first …

Objective A planning study was performed to evaluate dosimetric differences between
intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) …
