RAdiotherapy With FDG-PET Guided Dose-PAINTing for Primary Head and Neck
Sponsor: Oslo University Hospital
Summary
Dose-painting may increase the chance of cure at minimised radiation-induced toxicity in volumetric-arc radiotherapy (VMAT) for head and neck cancer. This trial (RADPAINT) investigates the safety of FDG-PET guided radiotherapy using VMAT dose-painting by contours for patients with head and neck cancer of poor prognosis.
