Objective: The aim is to assess the radiation dose received by the dysphagia–aspiration‑
related structures (DARS) and radiation‑related dysphagia in intensity‑modulated …

Materials and methods The period of this prospective study was from November 2018 to
March 2020. Patients were divided randomly in 1: 1 ratio into two groups, group 1 and group …

Aims: The aim of this study was to compare radiation dose to dysphagia aspiration related
structures (DARS) in intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and three-dimensional …

Results In our study, the mean age at presentation differed slightly between the IMRT and
3D-CRT arms: 58 years versus 55 years, respectively. A higher proportion of patients in both …

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility of sparing the dysphagia-aspiration-related structures
(DARS) in various head and neck cancer sites treated with definitive DARS-optimized …

Background Advances in radiotherapy techniques have improved clinical outcomes, but
have also lead to concerns over subsequent acute and late effects. Dysphagia is one such …

PURPOSE: Dysphagia is a major late complication of intensive chemoradiotherapy of head
and neck cancer. The initial clinical results of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT), or …

More rigorous study must be completed to determine the true extent of clinical benefit from
this practice. Institutions must take into consideration the limitations of the evidence as well …

Purpose Dysphagia is one of the most important treatment-related side effects in head and
neck cancer (HNC), as it can lead to severe life-threating complications such as aspiration …
