Improved treatment robustness of postoperative breast cancer radiotherapy including supraclavicular nodes

Improved treatment robustness of postoperative breast cancer radiotherapy including supraclavicular nodes

A combination of a three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) plan with a dose gradient of the chest wall area and a volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plan of the supraclavicular area might improve the dose distribution robustness in the junction. To investigate the impact of patie...
