Impact on quality of life of IMRT versus 3-D conformal radiation therapy in head and neck cancer patients: A case control study
Objective: The purpose of this study was to prospectively and longitudinally compare the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes between head and neck (HN) cancer patients treated with parotid-sparing intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and patients treated with 3-dimensional conven...
