Treatment-related toxicity, utility and patient-reported outcomes of head and neck cancer patients treated with proton therapy: A longitudinal study

Treatment-related toxicity, utility and patient-reported outcomes of head and neck cancer patients treated with proton therapy: A longitudinal study

Objective: In comparison to current standard photon irradiation, proton therapy (PT) significantly reduces dose to the surrounding normal tissue and therefore is expected to reduce toxicity and improve health related quality of life (HRQoL).
