Welcome, @christiholtorfhomes.
For anyone unfamiliar with DART 2.0, it stands for de-escalated adjuvant radiation therapy, a treatment for patients with HPV oropharynx cancer. You can read more about it at Mayo Clinic here:
- De-escalated therapy improves quality of life following oropharynx cancer treatment https://www.mayoclinic.org/medical-professionals/cancer/news/de-escalated-therapy-improves-quality-of-life-following-oropharynx-cancer-treatment/mac-20538563
I agree that @4dogsrental's detailed experience is really helpful.
@christiholtorfhomes, rest well this weekend. 🙂 Do you have any questions about what to expect? May I ask which Mayo location you'll be getting treatment (sun or snow)?
