Radiotherapy for head and neck cancers employs ionizing radiation which damages genetic material of susceptible malignant cells. In the oral cavity, this can lead to dental complications such as mucositis, trismus, xerostomia, radiation caries, and osteoradionecrosis.
A patient's journey to better skin health

Laryngectomy Skin Assessment and Management Tool
Here at Atos we are dedicated to helping to improve the quality of life for laryngectomy patients. In order to facilitate assessment and management of peristomal skin conditions, Atos UK have developed a tool to optimise “in clinic” evaluation and monitoring of peristomal skin disorders. This tool has been developed by our head and neck nurses based on their experience working with laryngectomy patients and peristomal skin conditions.
