Summary
This study tested a new way to give radiation therapy to people with advanced head and neck cancer. Doctors used a special MRI scan to find parts of the tumor that are most resistant to standard radiation and gave those areas a higher dose, while keeping normal doses to healthy tissue. The goal was to improve cancer control without more side effects. The study included 106 participants and compared this approach to standard radiation.
