Correlation between maximum heart distance and thoracic diameter changes and diaphragmatic descent in left-sided breast cancer patients during deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH)
Cardioprotection is valued in radiotherapy for patients with left-sided breast cancer. Deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) technique can achieve cardioprotection well. However, during DIBH, the extent to which the heart enters the radiation field is affected by the movement of the thorax and diaphra...
