Can nasopharyngeal carcinoma be cured by radical radiotherapy?

According to the situation you described, nasal cancer mainly occurs in malignant tumors of the nasopharyngeal mucosa. Generally speaking, radiotherapy is the preferred method for treating nasopharyngeal cancer, because nasopharyngeal cancer is classified as poorly differentiated cancer and has a high sensitivity to radioactivity. Generally speaking, the indications for radical radiotherapy include no obvious skull base, bone destruction, good physical condition, the largest cervical lymph node with a diameter of less than 8CM, and no metastasis to distant organs. Since radiotherapy has certain side effects, this is also normal.

Radical radiotherapy is usually given to nasopharyngeal carcinoma, with a dose of 70 GY, two GY per session, for a total of 35 sessions, to be completed within 7 weeks. For nasopharyngeal carcinoma, the tumor stage is first determined based on the examination results.
