Dosimetric Limitations in Treating Breast Cancer with Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation Using Strut Adjusted Volume Implant (SAVI)
We present one case of accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using strut adjusted volume implant (SAVI) where there were limitations in delivering the dose as per the standard guidelines. The device was placed close to both the chest wall and the skin with little tissue surrounding the tip....
