Analyses of patterns-of-failure and prognostic factors according to radiation fields in early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma

Purpose Doses and volumes of radiation therapy (RT) for early stages of Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) have been reduced over the last 30 years. Combined modality therapy (CMT) is currently the standard treatment for most patients with early-stage HL. The aim of this study was to analyze the site of relapse after RT according to the extent of radiation fields.
