A systematic review of methods to immobilise breast tissue during adjuvant breast irradiation [PDF]

, 2013
Greater use of 3D conformal, Intensity Modulated Radiotherapy (IMRT) and external beam partial breast irradiation following local excision (LE) for breast cancer has necessitated a review of the effectiveness of immobilisation methods to stabilise breast

Different meaning of the mean heart dose between 3D-CRT and IMRT for breast cancer radiotherapy

Frontiers in Oncology, 2023
BackgroundPrevious studies in 2D and in 3D conformal radiotherapy concludes that the maximal heart distance and the mean heart dose (MHD) are considered predictive of late cardiac toxicities.
