Summary
Description of the role of a post-operative external beam radiotherapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.
Detailed description
The role of post-operative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) in differentiated thyroid cancer is still discussed considering the low clinical aggressiveness and the availability of ablative 131Iodine therapy. However, there is a subgroup of tumors which lose the ability to capture Iodine over time. This study wants to describe the role of a post-operative external beam radiotherapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.
