| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reduced target radiotherapy | Experimental | According to our institutional guidelines, GTVnx included the primary tumor volume and the enlarged retropharyngeal nodes, while GTVnd was the volume of involved gross cervical lymph nodes. The clinical tumor volume (CTV) includes the primary tumor with potential subclinical disease. The high-risk clinical target volume (CTV1) was defined as the GTVnx plus a 5-mm margin to encompass the high-risk sites of microscopic extension, the whole nasopharynx, retropharyngeal nodal regions and . The low-risk clinical target volume (CTV2) was defined as the whole neck area.(Ib, VIIb, and the commom carotid artery are not included). |
