neck cancer

LEIPZIG, Germany: Doctors and computer scientists from Leipzig have developed a system that makes it easier to plan treatment for head and neck cancer. The multimedia system collates patient data and processes it for use by the treating physicians.

 

In a recently published study, a new radiotherapy system that lowers the radiation delivered to healthy tissue was assessed. The new system offers an additional option for the treatment of oral cancer as well as cancer of the pharynx.
