Impact of MRI on target volume definition in head and neck cancer patients
Abstract Background Target volume definition for curative radiochemotherapy in head and neck cancer is crucial since the predominant recurrence pattern is local. Additional diagnostic imaging like MRI is increasingly used, yet it is usually hampered by different patient positioning compared to radio...
