Patient‐Reported Dysphagia and Swallowing‐Related Quality of Life up to 10 Years After (Chemo)radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background This study sought to better understand patient‐reported dysphagia and swallowing‐related quality of life (swQOL) in patients 6 months to 10 years following definitive (chemo)radiotherapy for head and neck cancer (HNC). Methods In this cross‐sectional study, self‐reported dysphagia was assessed with the Eating Assessment Tool (EAT‐10)
