“…Various techniques for WBRT have been developed to provide homogeneous dose distribution in the target volume [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. The field-in-field radiotherapy technique is one of those techniques to improve the dosimetry in the irradiated volumes.…”

“…To improve the dosimetry of the treated breast, several investigators have described the uses of customized compensators [12][13][14][15][16], three non-coplanar conformal fields [17,18], one or two conformal dynamic short arc techniques [19], and intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) [19][20][21][22][23][24].…”

“…Die im hier diskutierten Zusammenhang wesentliche "late-onset"-Toxizität (vorwiegend subklinische Reduktion der linksventrikulären Funktion) wurde bisher nur in kleineren Serien mit langer Nachbeobachtungszeit als relevant und kontinuierlich progredient beschrieben [7,35,42,75]. Bezüglich der Interaktion zwischen Chemo-und Radiotherapie existieren widersprüchliche Daten für unterschiedliche Agenzien [3,18,19,37,87]. Zur immer häufiger eingesetzten fünfmodalen Therapie (Operation + Strahlentherapie + Anthracycline + Taxane + Trastuzumab) existieren keinerlei aussagekräftige Langzeitdaten zur Kardiotoxizität.…”

“…Some of them involve the use of two-dimensional compensators. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] Intensity modulated radiation therapy ͑IMRT͒ delivered with a multileaf collimator is more practical. Several groups have reported the application of IMRT to breast treatment.…”
