AB  - A dosimetric comparison was made of Helical Tomotherapy (HT) and Rapid'Arc((R)) 
      (RA) in 115 patients with head and neck carcinoma included in a prospective and 
      multicentric study. HT and RA provided highly conformal plans that easily 
      complied with dose volume constraints for organs at risk. HT reduced high doses 
      to the planning target volumes (PTVs) compared to RA and provided a more 
      homogeneous dose distribution but with an increased Non Tumoral Integral Dose 
      (NTID) than RA. However, the clinical consequences of these dosimetric advantages 
      and disadvantages need further investigation.
