The second one said he would use Cisplatin. Any thoughts about this. BTW, I found an review on PubMed that says Cisplatin is better for head and neck cancer. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9541678
Squamous cell carcinoma base of tongue. Lymph involvement unclear; staging placed at "2 or 3." Biopsy 4/18/2008. Treatment: IMRT every day for 7 weeks. Cisplaten once a week to sensitize cancer to radiation. Treatment ended 7/16/08. PET/CT shows no more cancer.
