Transforming Radiation Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer
One remarkable advancement in additive manufacturing is the development of patient-specific 3D-printed oral stents for head and neck cancer radiation therapy. Over 75% of cases are treated with some form of radiation–a highly effective yet difficult type of treatment that requires the right balance between killing the tumor while preserving the health of other organs-at-risk (OARs) and healthy tissue.
