Cone Beam CT
For the purposes of this study patients will get CT scans every day for the length of their radiation therapy (in order to assess if CT every day provides additional information compared with CT scans performed less frequently).
Radiotherapy will be delivered according to current guidelines.
Imaging will be performed every day before treatment for a total of approximately 35 cone beam CT scans over the 7 week course of therapy.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: approximately 7 weeksThe primary outcome measure of this study is to characterize patient-specific target and normal tissue movement.
Outcome measures
Outcome data not reported
PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: 24 monthsPopulation: 36 parotid glands were evaluable from 18 patients at baseline, 34 parotid glands were evaluable at 3-6 months, 32 glands were evaluable at 12 months, 20 were evaluable at 18 months and 8 at 24 months.
Spearman rank-based correlation coefficients were calculated for the association between saliva flow rate and the delivered mean parotid doses at several timepoints (Baseline, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months).
