Predictor Analysis of Acute Radiation Oral Mucositis in NPC Patients Treated With IMRT/TOMO Combined Chemotherapy

Radiation induced oral mucositis which may result in reduced quality of life is commonly seen during radiotherapy, especially combined with chemotherapy. This study is a prospective, single center, and exploratory study. Two contour methods of oral mucosal will be used in this study. All detail information will be recorded prospectively. The aim of this study is to explore predictive factors of acute radiotherapy induced oral mucositis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients treated with new precise radiotherapy (intensity modulated radiotherapy or tomography radiotherapy) by using different dosimetric parameters and clinically relevant variables.
