Dobrowsky,Andrzej Hliniak,Krzysztof Składowski,John Hay,Luiz H. J. Pinto,Carlo Fallai,Karen K. Fu,Richard Sylvester,Jean-Pierre Pignon +19 more
TL;DR: Comparison of the different types of altered radiotherapy suggests that hyperfractionation has the greatest benefit, whereas the benefit on nodal control was less pronounced.
Journal ArticleDOI
CT-based delineation of lymph node levels and related CTVs in the node-negative neck: DAHANCA, EORTC, GORTEC, NCIC,RTOG consensus guidelines.
Vincent Grégoire,Peter C. Levendag,Kian K. Ang,Jacques Bernier,Marijel Braaksma,Volker Budach,Cliff Chao,Emmanuel Coche,Jay S. Cooper,Guy Cosnard,Avraham Eisbruch,Samy El-Sayed,Bahman Emami,Cai Grau,Marc Hamoir,Nancy Y. Lee,Philippe Maingon,Karin Muller,Hervé Reychler +18 more
TL;DR: The objective of the present article is to present the consensus guidelines for the delineation of the node levels in the node-negative neck, and representative CTVs that are consistent with these guidelines are illustrated on CT sections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delineation of the neck node levels for head and neck tumors: A 2013 update. DAHANCA, EORTC, HKNPCSG, NCIC CTG, NCRI, RTOG, TROG consensus guidelines

TL;DR: In this article, a task force comprising opinion leaders in the field of head and neck radiation oncology from European, Asian, Australia/New Zealand and North American clinical research organizations was formed to review and update the previously published guidelines on nodal level delineation.
Journal Article

Luka Milas,Kathy A. Mason,Nancy Hunter,Sven Petersen,Michitaka Yamakawa,Kian K. Ang,John Mendelsohn,Zhen Fan +7 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that C225 anti-EGFR antibody enhances tumor radioresponse by multiple mechanisms that may involve direct and indirect actions on tumor cell survival.
Journal ArticleDOI
