摘要: Abstract The parotid gland was selected for study of its salivary output before and after radiation therapy head neck cancer. Before therapy, a sialogram the performed with patient's positioned therapy; lateral radiographic view used to compare treatment portal determine portion he irradiated. Samples stimulated saliva were collected from at 1 6 months post-radiation. Eighteen patients cancer who received studied. data showed that in irradiation nasopharyageal, advanced oropbaryngeal Waldeyer's ring lesions, 100% irradiated; early oropharyageal hypopbaryugeal 30 90% irradiated supragiottic oral cavity 25–30% When irradiated, no produced month post-radiation; this remained same when re-tested 4–8 months, however, any not there residual function.
