Dosimetric comparison of conventional and field-in-field techniques in early stage breast cancer radiotherapy
Introduction: Breast conserving surgery followed by adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) of the whole breast is accepted as the treatment of choice in early stage breast cancer. Due to breast irregularities, it is difficult to access homogenous dose distribution with conventional techniques. Currently, it is possible to use varied breast irradiation techniques, such as field- in-field (F...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison of whole breast radiotherapy using field in field and conformal radiotherapy techniques in early stage breast cancer
Background: We aimed to compare field-in-field technique (FIF) with conformal tangential field radiotherapy (CRT) in terms of dosimetric benefits for early stage breast cancer radiotherapy. Materials and Methods: Twenty consecutive left-side breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery were included to the study. For each patient, two different treatment plans were cr...
متن کاملRapid Health Technology Assessment of Oncotype DX in Patients with Early-Stage Breast Cancer

Patients are treated with chemotherapy initially, and if not chemically treated, the risk of recurrence of the disease increases yearly. Therefore, methods for identifying patients for whom chemotherapy would be most beneficial are very important. The Oncotype DX test is a prognostic assay that predicts the likelihood of breast can...
متن کاملEarly stage breast cancer and radiotherapy: update.
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy among women. Therapeutic options are based on disease staging, histopathological characteristics, age, and others. The objective of the present study is to carry out an update of the concepts and definitions of radiotherapy (RT) in conservative treatment of early-stage breast cancer, with emphasis on indications, contraindications, RT dose fracti...
متن کاملImproving outcomes in early-stage breast cancer.
Early-stage breast cancer is a prevalent malignancy that continues to cause a significant number of cancer-related deaths each year. Current evidence points to suboptimal care in patients with early-stage breast cancer, especially with regard to physician use of guideline-recommended care. Such appropriate treatment regimens as breast-conserving therapy and adjuvant therapy (including radiation...
