Site of disease and treatment protocol as correlates of swallowing function in patients with head and neck cancer treated with chemoradiation

The relationship between type of chemoradiation treatment, site of disease, and swallowing function has not been sufficiently examined in patients with head and neck cancer treated primarily with chemoradiation.
