As a consequence of the current excellent loco-regional control rates attained using the
generally accepted treatment paradigms involving intensity-modulated radiotherapy for …

Retreatment of recurrent or second primary head and neck cancers occurring in a previously
irradiated field is complex. Few guidelines exist to support practice. We performed an …

Background Reirradiation in standard fractionation for locally advanced recurrent
nasopharyngeal carcinoma after a previous course of high-dose radiotherapy is often …

Background MRI is the routine examination to surveil the recurrence of nasopharyngeal
carcinoma, but it has relatively lower sensitivity than PET/CT. We aimed to find if artificial …

Purpose Reirradiation for locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is challenging
because prior radiation dose delivered in the first course is often close to the tolerance limit …

Background The prognostic value of traditional clinical indicators for locally recurrent
nasopharyngeal carcinoma is limited because of their inability to reflect intratumor …

Background We aimed to evaluate the optimal management for elderly patients with
nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) with intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). Methods A …

Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance Yiqi Jiedu formula (YQJDF), rooted in the

Objectives Long-term risk of second primary cancer (SPC) after definitive intensity-
modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) remains unclear. This …

The present study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of various salvage
treatments to treat locally recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma (IrNPC). A comprehensive …
