Conformal radiation therapy represents a new challenge for
radiation oncologists. It offers the prospect of either increasing
the radiation dose to target tissues while delivering a similar
dose to organs at risk, or reducing the dose to organs at risk
while maintaining the dose to target tissues. First, lymph node
areas at risk are established using the available data from
pathological examination of surgical specimens and/or pattern of
locoregional relapse. Then, based on a three-dimensional
description of the anatomical regions where the areas at risk are
located, guidelines for the delineation of the clinical target
volumes are proposed. The data presented should enable the reader
to make appropriate decisions regarding the selection and
delineation of the target volumes when confronted with the most
frequent tumor types and sites.The book will contribute to paving
the way for more effective radiation oncology in the twenty-first
century.
