Strålebehandling med Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT) mot venstresidig brystkreft med spredning til regionale lymfeknuter [PDF]
Bakgrunn: Studier har vist høyere dødelighet av hjertesykdom blant pasienter som fikk strålebehandling mot venstre bryst sammenlignet med de som fikk behandling mot høyre bryst. Pustestyrt behandlingsteknikk reduserer stråledosen til hjertet.
