Radiation-induced Mucositis in Patients with Oropharyngeal Cancer Treated with Moderate Acceleration of Intensity-modulated Radiation Therapy and Simultaneous Integrated Boost Concomitant with Weekly Cisplatin
BACKGROUND: Radiation-induced mucositis is one of the limiting factors during radiotherapy, disturbing the quality of life and in some cases leading to discontinuation of therapy. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) represents advanced form of radiotherapy technique in treatment of oropharyngeal carcinoma enabling precision cancer targeting with…
