Treatment outcomes of intensity‐modulated radiotherapy versus 3D conformal radiotherapy for patients with maxillary sinus cancer in the postoperative setting

In this study, we compared the treatment outcomes of postoperative 3D conformal radiotherapy (RT) and intensity‐modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for patients with maxillary sinus carcinoma.
