Deep learning (DL) offers potential improvements by incorporating 3D dose data for all anatomical structures involved in swallowing. This study aims to enhance dysphagia prediction with 3D DL NTCP models compared to conventional NTCP models.</div></div><div><h3>Materials &amp; methods</h3><div>A multi-institutional cohort of 1484 HNC patients was used to train and validate a 3D DL model (Residual Network) incorporating 3D dose distributions, organ-at-risk segmentations, and CT scans, with or without patient- or treatment-related data. Predictions of grade ≥ 2 dysphagia (CTCAEv4) at six months post-treatment were evaluated using area under the curve (AUC) and calibration curves. Results were compared to a conventional NTCP model based on pre-treatment dysphagia, tumour location, and mean dose to swallowing organs. Attention maps highlighting regions of interest for individual patients were assessed.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>DL models outperformed the conventional NTCP model in both the independent test set (AUC = 0.80–0.84 versus 0.76) and external test set (AUC = 0.73–0.74 versus 0.63) in AUC and calibration. Attention maps showed a focus on the oral cavity and superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>DL NTCP models performed significantly better than the conventional NTCP model, suggesting the benefit of using 3D-input over the conventional discrete dose parameters. Attention maps highlighted relevant regions linked to dysphagia, supporting the utility of DL for improved predictions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21041,"journal":{"name":"Radiotherapy and Oncology","volume":"213 ","pages":"Article 111169"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145207369","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluates the outcomes of postoperative intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for HN-ACC to guide radiation target delineation, optimizing radiation planning and improving patient outcomes.</div></div><div><h3>Patients and Methods</h3><div>A retrospective review of postoperative IMRT outcomes in HN-ACC patients from January 2015 to December 2022 was conducted. Prophylactic coverage of trigeminal nerve branches in the radiation field and cervical nodal irradiation was based on clinical/pathological assessments. The primary endpoint was 5-year locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS), with secondary endpoints including progression-free survival (PFS), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), and overall survival (OS).</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>A total of 328 patients were followed for a median of 61.1 months. The 5-year LRRFS, PFS, DMFS, and OS rates were 91.7 %, 63.0 %, 67.1 %, and 91.3 %, respectively. Thirty patients experienced locoregional recurrence, comprising 19 local recurrences, 6 regional recurrences, and 5 combined local and regional recurrences. Eleven patients had recurrence involving trigeminal nerve branches (8 in-field, 3 marginal).</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Postoperative IMRT for HN-ACC, utilizing our institutional target delineation protocol that prioritizes delineating the target along the trigeminal nerve pathway, suggests favorable locoregional control and survival outcomes. These results suggest evidence-based insights that could inform clinical practice and support radiation oncologists in optimizing IMRT strategies for HN-ACC.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21041,"journal":{"name":"Radiotherapy and Oncology","volume":"213 ","pages":"Article 111174"},"PeriodicalIF":5.3,"publicationDate":"2025-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145200937","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
