Summary

The study had a cross-sectional design and included patients with HNC involving the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, nasal cavity, or salivary glands who recieve RT.

the investigators obtained information on their clinical and tumor characteristics and their treatment from the clinical records. Data on risk factors for atherosclerosis, medications used, and radiotherapy were also collected.

Images were analyzed to determine the timing of development of CAS, identify significant (\>50%) CAS using the North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial criteria, and calculate the total plaque score (TPS) and wall thickness.

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of ICVE and of CAS in patients who receive radiotherapy for HNC and the risk factors for CAS.
