A Prospective Non-Inferiority Trial of the Use of Adaptive Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer Undergoing Radiation Therapy
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that adaptive radiotherapy (ART) in head and neck
cancer patients are comparable to historical controls in head and neck patients undergoing
standard intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) without ART.
