Key result
Review compares involved site, node, and field radiotherapy and combined modality therapy for Hodgkin lymphoma.
Why the study?
Radiation therapy techniques for early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma in adolescents and young adults require evaluation of involved field, involved node, and involved site approaches and their implications in combined modality therapy.
This review discusses involved site radiation therapy and combined modality therapy for early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma in adolescents and young adults.
May guide RT field selection in AYA Hodgkin lymphoma; leaves open optimal combined-modality strategies.
Radiation therapy technology has permitted the development of new treatment planning techniques. Involved field, involved node, and involved site radiotherapy fields are discussed and compared. Indications for and implications of combined modality therapy are examined, particularly as pertinent to the adolescent and young adult population.

Carol S. Portlock (2015) conducted a review in Early-stage Hodgkin lymphoma. Involved site radiation therapy vs. Involved field and involved node radiotherapy was evaluated. This review discusses and compares involved field, involved node, and involved site radiotherapy fields, and examines combined modality therapy for adolescents and young adults with Hodgkin lymphoma.
