Abstract P3-19-21: Semi-lateral decubitus position using Alexandria left breast board-16. A prospective study regarding dose distribution and reproduciblity
Abstract:Purpose: Organs at risk sparing without compromising adequate coverage to the target volumes is the main challenge during left breast cancer adjuvant radiation therapy. Advanced radiotherapy techniques have been investigated to improve the dose distributions and to reduce toxicities. These techniques includes deep inspiration breath hold, accelerated partial-breast irradiation, Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy. Supine positioning (SP) is the most commonly used and the standard tangent set-up for breast ra… Show more
