"I work in the field of the head and neck. These are tightly packed organs. They are very small, and when you have a tumor beside them, it can all get very tightly packed. So as you give radiation - long course radiation - the geometry changes, and we must adapt. We call that adaptive radiation. So we adjust our treatment to reduce the side effects as much as possible."
