Влияние режима фракционирования на вероятность локального контроля для рака корня языка

Abstract

Tumors of the head - neck region are characterized by a high proliferation rate during radiation treatment. Modern equipment for radiation therapy allows you to create and implement therapeutic radiation plans with a high degree of conformity and homogeneity of the dose distribution in the target volume with a minimum radiation load on critical organs, which makes it possible to increase the dose per fraction (i.e. hypofractionation) and reduce the total time the entire course of radiation therapy. The use of the hypofractionation regimen increases the effectiveness of radiation therapy in terms of the biological effectiveness of radiation therapy.
