Abstract
Context: Head-and-neck cancer patients undergoing chemoradiation.Aims: The aim of the study was to see if there is any correlation between the planning target volume (PTV) and mucositis.Settings and Design: This was a single-arm prospective study.Subjects and Methods: A total of forty head-and-neck cancer patients undergoing chemoradiation were assessed for mucositis at the 5th week. The grades of mucositis were correlated with PTVs of low risk (54 Gy) and high risk (60ā66 Gy).Statistical Analysis Used: The data were analyzed using the statistical software, SPSS Inc. Release 2009, predictive analytics software statistics for windows version 20.0, Chicago. Log transformation was done as the data were skewed. Independent t-test was used to compare between the two grades of toxicity. P| Reference Key |
