Is prone free breathing better than supine deep inspiration breath-hold for left whole-breast radiotherapy? A dosimetric analysis
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Strahlentherapie Und Onkologie"
DOI: 10.1007/s00066-020-01731-8
Abstract: The advantage of prone setup compared with supine for left-breast radiotherapy is controversial. We evaluate the dosimetric gain of prone setup and aim to identify predictors of the gain. Left-sided breast cancer patients who had… read more here.

Prone versus supine free-breathing for right-sided whole breast radiotherapy
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-04385-3
Abstract: Prone setup has been advocated to improve organ sparing in whole breast radiotherapy without impairing breast coverage. We evaluate the dosimetric advantage of prone setup for the right breast and look for predictors of the… read more here.
