Background: In the multimodal breast-conserving curative therapy of some high-risk breast cancer patients, extended external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) not only to the breast but also to the supraclavicular fossa and the internal mammary chain (parasternal region (PSR)) is indicated. We report a dosimetric study on the EBRT of the breast (“B”) and the breast including PSR (“B + PSR”), comparing the supine and the laterally tilted prone patient positions in free breathing. Methods: The planning CT scans of 20 left- and 20 right-sided patients were analyzed. EBRT plans were calculated with 3D conformal EBRT (3D) and with intensity-modulated EBRT (IMRT) for “B” and “B + PSR” in the prone and supine positions. The mean and threshold doses were computed. The quality of EBRT plans was compared with an overall plan assessment factor (OPAF), comprising three subfactors, homogeneity, conformity, and radiogenic exposure of OAR. Results: In the EBRT of “B”, prone positioning significantly reduced the exposure of the OARs “heart” and “ipsilateral lung” and “lymphatic regions”. The OPAF was significantly better in the prone position, regardless of the planning technique or the treated breast side. In the EBRT of “B + PSR”, supine positioning significantly reduced the OAR “heart” exposure but increased the dose to the OARs “ipsilateral lung” and “lymphatic regions”. There were no significant differences for the OPAF, independent of the irradiated breast side. Only the IMRT planning technique increased the chance of a comparatively good EBRT plan. Conclusion: Free breathing prone positioning significantly improves plan quality in the EBRT of the breast but not in the EBRT of the breast + PSR.
