Local control and failure patterns after intensity modulated radiotherapy with reduced target volume delineation after induction chemotherapy for patients with T4 nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Local control and failure patterns after intensity modulated radiotherapy with reduced target volume delineation after induction chemotherapy for patients with T4 nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Background: The delineation of target volume after induction chemotherapy(IC) for nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) is currently controversial. In this study, we aimed to analyze the long-term local control(LC) and failure patterns of T4 NPC treated with reduced target volume radiotherapy after IC. Meth...
