Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "International Journal of Cancer"
DOI: 10.1002/ijc.33525
Abstract: We assessed the clinical benefit of combining volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and hypofractionated radiotherapy (HF‐RT) considering the incidence of radiation‐related toxicities. After a retrospective review for breast cancer patients treated with adjuvant RT between 2005… read more here.
