Radiobiological modeling of interplay between accelerated repopulation and altered fractionation schedules in head and neck cancer

Head and neck cancer represents a challenge for radiation oncologists due to accelerated repopulation of cancer cells during treatment. This study aims to simulate, using Monte Carlo methods, the response of a virtual head and neck tumor to both conventional and altered fractionation schedules in ra...
