Comparative effectiveness of intensity modulated radiation therapy to 3-dimensional conformal radiation in locally advanced lung cancer: pathological and clinical outcomes.

CONCLUSIONS: : When used to treat LANSCLC in the neoadjuvant setting, both IMRT and 3DCRT produce comparable pathologic and clinical outcomes. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: : This study validates the real-world effectiveness of IMRT compared to 3DCRT. PMID: 30864828 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
