Advances in Radiation Oncology

Treatment of squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck is rapidly evolving due to changing patient populations, an emphasis on quality of life–related outcomes, and advances in radiotherapy concepts and techniques to meet these new demands. This review includes recent and ongoing studies that are potentially practice changing, including improvements in intensity-modulated radiotherapy planning, the use of deintensified regimens in the human papilloma virus–related setting, and adjuvant therapy after transoral robotic surgery. Additionally, recent studies of modern proton therapy are reviewed.
