Abstract:

The paper describes clinical cases of conformal re-irradiation of recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. The use of current technological advances in radiotherapy permits re-irradiation of tumors in effective single (hypofractionation) and cumulative focal doses (CFD) and a reduction of radiation exposure to adjacent normal structures. CFD reconstruction of conventional pre-irradiation enables one to estimate the risks of possible complications due to re-irradiation.

Keywords:

conformal radiotherapy

re-irradiation

hypofractionation

squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck
