Axillary lymph node dose with tangential whole breast radiation in the prone versus supine position: a dosimetric study
BACKGROUND: Prone breast positioning reduces skin reaction and heart and lung dose, but may also reduce radiation dose to axillary lymph nodes (ALNs). METHODS: Women with early stage breast cancer treated with whole breast irradiation (WBI) in the prone position were identified. Patients treated in...
