Left-sided breast cancer radiotherapy has been associated with an increase in cardiac mortality. This study investigated the potential heart-sparing effect of volumetric-modulated arc (VMAT). We compared VMAT to tangential intensity-modulated (t-IMRT) loco-regional treatment left-sided cancer, including internal mammary nodal irradiation, based on deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) and free-breathing (FB).Radiotherapy for 15 patients was re-planned. Four plans were compared: t-IMRT-DIBH;...
To determine outcomes after adjuvant pelvic local radiation therapy (RT) +/- concurrent chemotherapy for T1 and T2 rectal carcinomas treated with excision or polypectomy.We retrospectively identified adult patients histologically proven adenocarcinoma, diagnosed incidentally at time of polypectomy between 01 January 2007 31 December 2019, appropriately staged to confirm N0 M0 status. Patients were excluded if they had recurrent cancer received total mesorectal (TME): anterior resection (AR)...
