Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Cervical fibrosis (CF) as a late consequence in patients after radiotherapy significantly impacts the long-term symptoms, functionality, and quality of life of these cancer patients due to a hardening process of different histological tissues. Modern Shear Wave Ultrasound Elastography now enables a differentiated analysis of the changes in various tissue types. In this study, tissue-specific changes in CF induced by radiation therapy in head and neck (ENT) cancer patients were quanti...     »
