The role of head and neck advanced practice radiation therapist in the revolutionising era of proton therapy

Radiotherapy has undergone significant advancements in the treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC), from 2D techniques to Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and Image Guided Radiotherapy (IGRT). Proton beam therapy (PBT) is an emerging modality that offers improved dosimetric coverage and the potential for increased radiation dose in HN irradiation.
