Summary

Treatment adaptation to biological and anatomical changes occurring during treatment can increase the chance of cure at minimized radiation-induced toxicity in head and neck cancer patients. This trial investigates the feasibility of using repetitive per-treatment \[18F\]FDG-PET acquired during treatment in adaptive \[18F\]FDG-PET-voxel intensity-based intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) or volumetric-modulated arc therapy (VMAT) for head and neck cancer.
