Abstract

Purpose Comprehensive nodal irradiation improves survival in patients with breast cancer. The usual practice of selective nodal irradiation is increasingly viewed as less than adequate but is still widely used. Bilateral breast cancer is a scenario occasionally seen in high-volume centers. We compare dosimetric outcomes in patients undergoing bilateral breast and comprehensive nodal irradiation using standard three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3DCRT) versus intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT).
