Quality‐of‐life comparison between intensity‐modulated proton therapy and volumetric‐modulated arc therapy in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma: Preliminary findings from real‐world data

Abstract Background Limited data are available to examine the effects of intensity‐modulated proton therapy (IMPT) on patient‐reported outcomes in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Thus, we assessed whether patients receiving IMPT reported a better short‐term quality of life (QoL) than t...
