The Impact of Reduced-Volume, Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy on Disease Control in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
Objective: To investigate the feasibility of using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) with reduced, high-dose target volumes for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: The first 57 patients (admitted from October 2005 to May 2008) were treated with large-target-volume IMRT (LV-IMRT). For the…
