Feasibility study of individualized optimal positioning selection for left‐sided whole breast radiotherapy: DIBH or prone
The deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) and prone (P) position are two common heart-sparing techniques for external-beam radiation treatment of left-sided breast cancer patients. Clinicians select the position that is deemed to be better for tissue sparing based on their experience. This approach, however, is not always optimum and consistent. In response to this, we develop a quantitative tool...
متن کاملDosimetric comparison of left-sided whole breast irradiation with 3D-CRT, IP-IMRT and hybrid IMRT.
The aim of this study was to compare the dosimetric characteristics of left-sided whole breast irradiation among 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3D-CRT), 4-field inverse-planned intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IP-IMRT) and hybrid IMRT technique (combining 3D-CRT beams and IP-IMRT beams) with respect to target coverage and irradiation of organs at risk. The 3 different planning technique...
متن کاملWhole breast and regional nodal irradiation in prone versus supine position in left sided breast cancer
BACKGROUND Prone whole breast irradiation (WBI) leads to reduced heart and lung doses in breast cancer patients receiving adjuvant radiotherapy. In this feasibility trial, we investigated the prone position for whole breast + lymph node irradiation (WB + LNI). METHODS A new support device was developed for optimal target coverage, on which patients are positioned in a position resembling a ph...
متن کاملReproducibility of deep inspiration breath hold for prone left-sided whole breast irradiation
BACKGROUND Investigating reproducibility and instability of deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) in the prone position to reduce heart dose for left-sided whole breast irradiation. METHODS Thirty patients were included and underwent 2 prone DIBH CT-scans during simulation. Overlap indices were calculated for the ipsilateral breast, heart and lungs to evaluate the anatomical reproducibility of ...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of 3-D Conformal Radiotherapy Treatment Plans with and Without Deep Inspiration Breath-Hold Technique for Left-Sided Breast Cancer
Introduction: The rate of cardiac diseases have increased among patients who underwent radiotherapy for left-sided breast cancer. The study’s aim was evaluate the dose to organs at risk in free-breathing 3-dimensional conformal (FB-3DCRT) against 3-dimensional conformal deep inspiration breath-hold (3DCRT-DIBH) in patients with left-sided breast cancer. Ma...
