Summary
Diagnostic CT and PET scans from 215 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients treated with radiation therapy (RT) at MD Anderson obtained pre-RT, post-RT and at recurrence, when applicable. Data set also includes all RT simulation, target delineation, and planning DICOM images for all patients. The CT phase of diagnostic abdominal imaging was then used to quantify body composition in these patients as part of a study into the prognostic impact of patients' muscle mass on oncologic outcomes. Accompanying clinical information includes patient and cancer characteristics, survival, recurrence, and body composition data.
