An IMRT class solution for patients with skin lesions of the temple region that have spread to the parotid gland [PDF]

, 2006
Patients with skin lesions of the temple region that have spread to the parotid gland are commonly treated with three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT). 3DCRT has associated limitations when treating this disease.

The number of beams in IMRT—theoretical investigations and implications for single-arc IMRT [PDF]

Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2009
The first purpose of this paper is to shed some new light on the old question of selecting the number of beams in intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). The second purpose is to illuminate the related issue of discrete static beam angles vs. rotational techniques, which has recently re-surfaced due to the advancement of volumetric arc therapy ...

Pattern of Failure in Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma After Radiotherapy in a Low‐Incidence Population: A DAHANCA Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is uncommon in many populations. Most existing clinical evidence comes from endemic areas, where Epstein–Barr virus (EBV)‐associated subtypes predominate. We analyzed patterns of failure in a population‐based cohort from Denmark, a low‐incidence setting.
