SU‐GG‐J‐95: Feasibility to Use Daily Cone‐Beam‐CT to Determine Dose‐Surface Histogram of Oral Mucosa in Radiotherapy of H&N Cancer

Purpose: to develop a novel approach for estimating dose delivered to the oral mucosa — dose‐surface histogram (DSH)‐ to facilitate assessment of radiation induced mucositis from radiotherapy for head and neck (H&N) cancer. Method and Materials: Mucositis, Xerostomia, and dental caries are commo...
