Summary
Head and neck cancer is a group of cancers develop from the soft tissues, salivary gland, mucosa of the upper respiratory or digestive system covering the oral and nasal cavity. Radiotherapy is usually the standard treatment of Head and neck cancers. In the present study, investigators aim to study the prevalence of cervical-cranial vascular complications during the early stages in these Head and neck cancer patients receiving Radiotherapy. Investigators will also compare the results between Nasopharyngeal cancer and other Head and neck cancerpatients receiving Radiotherapy.
