Validation of the total dysphagia risk score (TDRS) in head and neck cancer patients in a conventional and a partially accelerated radiotherapy scheme
Journal Contribution - Journal Article
A risk model, the total dysphagia risk score (TDRS), was developed to predict which patients are most at risk to develop grade ⩾2 dysphagia at 6months following radiotherapy (RT) for head and neck cancer. The purpose of this study was to validate this model at 6months and to investigate the power at earlier and later time-points. A second aim was to see if this model can be used in a partially accelerated RT regimen.
