Prospective Study on Monitoring Parotid Gland Injury After Radiotherapy for Head and Neck Tumors Using Multimodal Radiomics

IVIM imaging will be performed to evaluate microstructural and perfusion changes in the salivary glands of Head and Neck Cancer undergoing radiotherapy. This technique quantifies diffusion and perfusion parameters, providing insights into early tissue damage. MRF imaging will be used to quantify salivary gland tissue characteristics, including relaxation parameters (T1 and T2 mapping), to monitor radiotherapy-induced damage. The technique enables precise tissue characterization through multi-parametric MRI.
