Impact of schedule duration on head and neck radiotherapy: Accelerated tumor repopulation versus compensatory mucosal proliferation

Purpose: To determine how modelled maximum tumor control rates, achievable without exceeding mucositis tolerance (tcp max-early) vary with schedule duration for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Methods and materials: Using maximum-likelihood techniques, we have fitted a range of tcp mo...
