Towards improving radiotherapeutic treatment of the parotid glands: a cross-modality investigation

Event Start:
2024-01-11T10:00:00
Event End:
2024-01-11T12:30:00
Event Information:

The complexity of radiotherapy techniques for treating head and neck cancer has significantly advanced over the previous two decades. However, it remains common for patients to finish treatment with a severe loss in salivary function, causing significantly diminished quality of life assessments. The overall goal of research endeavours in this thesis is to develop innovative techniques that lead to better understanding and consideration of salivary glands during head and neck radiotherapy planning.
