Mashup Score: 32Cardiac segments dosimetric benefit from deep inspiration breath hold technique for left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy - 3 month(s) ago
Background: The objective was to compare dosimetry in left-sided breast cancer (LSBC) patients receiving deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) radiotherapy (RT) with free-breathing (FB) treatment plans. Materials and methods: Voluntary DIBH with a spirometer-based video-assisted system and CT-simulation were performed under FB and DIBH conditions on 40 LSBC patients, segmented according Duane’s atlas. IMRT plans kept the same dosimetric goals on FB and DIBH conditions. Target, lungs and heart volumes were measured. Planning target volume (PTV) dose distribution, organs at risk (OARs) dose/volume parameters, including cardiac substructures, were calculated. Results: Lungs and left-lung volumes increased in DIBH conditions (ΔV = 1637.8 ml ± 555.3 and 783.5 ml ± 286.4, respectively). Heart volume slightly decreased in apnea (p = 0.04), but target volumes, CTV and PTV were similar in FB or DIBH plans. PTV dose coverage was similar irrespective of respiratory conditions (median D50% = 41.1 Gy
