Whole breast irradiation vs. APBI using multicatheter brachytherapy in early breast cancer – simulation of treatment costs based on phase 3 trial data [PDF]

Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy, 2016
Purpose: A recent large phase 3 trial demonstrated that the efficacy of accelerated partial-breast irradiation (APBI) in the treatment of early breast cancer is non-inferior to that of whole breast irradiation (WBI) commonly used in this indication ...

Prone Breast Radiotherapy on the MR-Linac: A Technical Note on Skin-Couch Contact Dose Effects. [PDF]

J Med Radiat Sci
This retrospective planning study evaluated the dosimetric effects of skin‐couch contact during prone APBI on a 1.5 T MR‐Linac by comparing treatment plans calculated with and without a magnetic field. While the presence of the magnetic field increased overall superficial skin dose, it consistently reduced dose at the skin‐couch contact region ...
