Proton Therapy for Locally Advanced Oropharyngeal Cancer: Initial Clinical Experience at the University of Washington
Purpose: Proton therapy can potentially improve the therapeutic ratio over conventional radiation therapy for oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer (OPSCC) by decreasing acute and late toxicity. We report our early clinical experience with intensity-modulated proton therapy (IMPT). Materials and Method...
