Measurement of Thyroid Dose by TLD arising from Radiotherapy of Breast Cancer Patients from Supraclavicular Field
Background: Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading global cause of cancer death among women worldwide. Radiotherapy plays a significant role in treatment of breast cancer and reduces locoregional recurrence and eventually improves survival. The treatment fields applied for breast cancer treatment include: tangential, axillary, supraclavicular and internal mammary ...
متن کاملCalculation of Thyroid Dose with Planner System and Evaluation of Thyroid Function after Radiotherapy for Patients with Breast Cancer
Background: Much research has widely been conducted into thyroid hormones levels following radiotherapy for breast cancer. Consequently, in this study, we evaluated to relate the rate of thyroid hormones levels with the dose distribution among breast cancer patients.Material and Methods: Thirty patients were treated with 4-field breast cancer radiotherapy. The dose volume histograms, the volume...
متن کاملIntraoperative Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer
Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) for early stage breast cancer is a technique for partial breast irradiation. There are several technologies in clinical use to perform breast IORT. Regardless of technique, IORT generally refers to the delivery of a single dose of radiation to the periphery of the tumor bed in the immediate intraoperative time frame, although some protocols have performed IORT...

متن کاملThe Effect of Breast Reconstruction Prosthesis on Photon Dose Distribution in Breast Cancer Radiotherapy
Introduction: Siliconeprosthetic implants are commonlyutilizedfor tissue replacement and breast augmentation after mastectomy. On the other hand, some patients require adjuvant radiotherapy in order to preventlocal-regional recurrence and increment ofthe overall survival. In case of recurrence, the radiation oncologist might have to irradiate the prosthesis.The aim of this study was to evaluate...
