Background Large anatomical variations occur during the course of intensity-modulated
radiation therapy (IMRT) for locally advanced head and neck cancer (LAHNC). The risks are
therefore a parotid glands (PG) overdose and a xerostomia increase. The purposes of the
study were to estimate:-the PG overdose and the xerostomia risk increase during a
“standard” IMRT (IMRT std);-the benefits of an adaptive IMRT (ART) with weekly replanning
to spare the PGs and limit the risk of xerostomia. Material and methods Fifteen patients …
