摘要
Recently,the survival rate of head and neck cancer patients has increased with the improvement of radiotherapy (RT) technology and comprehensive treatment.Cancer survivors after RT are at increased risk for cerebrovascular events. Radiation-induced cervical artery stenosis (RICAS) has its own characteristics compared with those lesions without a history of RT.
