Monocentric, category 2 study according to Jardé Law (minimal risks and constraints) of three prospective cohorts: Tumors located at the oropharynx, the oral cavity and the larynx-hypopharynx. The main objective is to evaluate the 3D vector of the absolute residual positioning error observed with the CBCT reference imaging, after repositioning performed with ExacTrac®. The secondary objectives are to evaluate: 1) the rate of residual errors ≥2mm (translations in all directions) and ≥2 ° (rotations in all directions) on CBCT imaging after repositionning with the ExacTrac® system; 2) the Evaluation of intrafraction movements amplitude by analyzing the ExacTrac® images taken during the irradiation; 3) the evolution of the relative position of the volume of the tumor at high risk of recurrence (CTVTHR) in relation to the spine over the entire duration of the treatment; 4) the impact of patient's weight loss, the advancement of RT and the realization of a chemotherapy / targeted therapy concomitant with RT, on the evolution of the relative position of the CTVTHR in relation to the column vertebral; 5) the dosimetric consequence of a strict bone registration on the CTVTHR coverage by calculating the post-treatment dose on the CBCT imaging.
