Dosimetric Evaluation of Hippocampus Sparing Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy in Patients With Stage T1-T2 and Stage T3-T4 Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
HPC-sparing IMRT plans may play a more significant role in decreasing D<sub>median</sub>, D<sub>mean</sub>, D<sub>40%,</sub> and V<sub>30</sub>-V<sub>50</sub> of HPC in NPC patients with stages T3-T4 than those in stages T1-T2. PTV<sub>nx70</sub> volume of NPC patients is positively correlated with all dosimetric and volumetric parameters of HPC and the reduction of specific dosage parameters by HPC-sparing IMRT plans.
