Cost-effectiveness analysis of radiotherapy techniques for whole breast irradiation.
<h4>Background</h4>The current standard of care (SOC) for whole breast radiotherapy (WBRT) in the US is conventional tangential photon fields. Advanced WBRT techniques may provide similar tumor control and better normal tissue sparing, but it is controversial whether the medical benefits...
