Comparison of Heart and Lung Doses According to Tumor Bed Boost Techniques in Early-Stage Left-Sided Breast Cancer: Simultaneous Integrated Boost versus Sequential Boost
<i>Background and Objectives</i>: The boost dose to the tumor bed after whole breast irradiation (WBI) can be divided into sequential boost (SEQ) and simultaneous integrated boost (SIB). SIB using modern radiation therapy (RT) techniques, such as volumetric modulated arc therapy, allow t...
