Radiotherapy planning studies have confirmed dosimetric advantages of intensity-modulated radiation therapy over conventional and conformal radiation therapy. Utilization of intensity-modulated radiation therapy is ideal in head and neck cancer patients. Critical structures can be spared due to sharp dose gradients and limited organ motion with correct immobilization. Initial clinical results h...
