Background And Purpose: Minimizing radiation dose exposure to nearby organs is key to limiting clinical toxicities associated with radiotherapy. Several treatment modalities such as split- or whole-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (SF-IMRT, WF-IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) are being used to treat tonsillar cancer patients with unilateral neck radiotherapy. Herein, we provide a modern dosimetric comparison of all three techniques.

Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Shi-Ming Samuel Tung"

  • - Shi-Ming Samuel Tung's research primarily focuses on optimizing radiotherapy techniques for patients with unilateral tonsil cancer, specifically aiming to minimize radiation exposure to surrounding organs to reduce clinical toxicities.
  • - In his 2019 article, Tung conducted a dosimetric comparison of different radiotherapy modalities, including split- or whole-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy (SF-IMRT, WF-IMRT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT).
  • - The study highlights the importance of selecting the appropriate treatment modality to enhance therapeutic outcomes while protecting the larynx and other critical structures during radiotherapy for tonsillar cancer.
