简要总结
Description of the role of a post-operative external beam radiotherapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.
详细描述
The role of post-operative external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) in differentiated thyroid cancer is still discussed considering the low clinical aggressiveness and the availability of ablative 131Iodine therapy. However, there is a subgroup of tumors which lose the ability to capture Iodine over time. This study wants to describe the role of a post-operative external beam radiotherapy in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer.

结局指标
主要结局
Progression free survival (PFS)
时间窗: 6 months
Progression-free survival (PFS) after radiotherapy is evaluated with CT-scan and 18F FDG PET-scan. Also laboratory tests are performed (HTG serum level evaluation in case of biochemical recurrence).
