AbstractIntensity‐modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) has found widespread use in the treatment of head and neck cancers. This technology allows for conformal dose distributions around a tumor target while a rapid dose fall‐off spares surrounding critical structures. The properties of IMRT are particularly suited for treating head and neck cancers due to the close proximity of dose‐limiting normal tissues allowing for potential dose escalation. Further studies are ongoing to investigate long‐term clinical outcomes and toxicity. J. Surg. Oncol. 2008;97:691–696. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
