| Research Abstract |
The aim of this study was to establish the optimal dose fractionation of hypofractionated radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. We analyzed converted dose-volume histograms with the linear-quadratic model derived from such histograms with usual 2Gy-fractional dose prescriptions. A target volume and organs at risk were delineated to analyze the difference among the histograms generated with respective alpha-beta ratios.
