A magnetic resonance imaging-based approach to quantify radiation-induced normal tissue injuries applied to trismus in head and neck cancer
Background and purpose: In this study we investigated the ability of textures from T1-weighted MRI scans post-contrast (T1wpost) to identify the critical muscle(s) for radiation-induced trismus. Materials and methods: The study included ten cases (Trismus: ≥Grade 1), and ten age-sex-tumor-location-a...
