ABSTRACT
In treating cancer patients, disease free survival and survival have been improved during the last decade by technical progress and new systemic therapies. In radiation therapy as well as in any other cancer treatment potential long-term side effects and complications need special attention. The success of doubling tumour control by radiation therapy in patients with head and neck tumours illustrates the needs of long-term follow-ups. Cost-effectiveness has to be considered, when treatment results of RT equal surgical results, as it is often the case in head and neck tumours as well as in other malignant diseases.
