Greetings. Dad is now 5 weeks out from surgery and recovering well from the ND and mandibulectomy. We are scheduled for CT simulation for upcoming IMRT next week. He has had a full beard forever and the RO has given us an option to shave or trim it. Any experiences or advice? Does the hair length have to be exact during the radiation process? Thanks.
Only daughter to 65 y.o non smker Dad with 3.2 cm Rt lower alveolar rim SCC with 4 level 1 lymph nodes, T4N2bM0- IVb. Had right mandibulectomy and neck dissection with fibular flap reconstruction 3/2009. Recieving IMRT, planned 34 Tx and Cisplatin 3 cycles since mid May 2009.
