Abstract
Oral and oropharyngeal mucositis (OM) represents a multifactorial and complex interplay of patient-, tumor-, and treatment-related factors. We aimed to build a predictive model for acute OM for locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients by combining clinical and dosimetric factors. A series of consecutive NPC patients treated curatively with IMRT/VMAT + chemotherapy at 70 Gy (2–2.12 Gy/fr) was considered. For each patient,...
