Unsupervised machine learning based clustering and treatment planning strategy for reducing radiation dermatitis in IMPT of head and neck cancer

2022-08-29

Abstract excerpt

Radiation dermatitis (RD) is a major concern in intensity modulated proton therapy (IMPT) for head and neck cancer (HNC) despite its demonstrated superiority over contemporary photon radiotherapy. In this study, dose surface histogram (DSH) data extracted from forty-four patients of HNC treated with IMPT was used to predict the normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) of skin. Grades of NTCP-skin were cluster...
