SU‐FF‐T‐119: Cardiac Dose Heterogeneity and Relationship to Tumor Location in Patients Receiving Radiation for Lung Cancer

Conference Medical Physics · January 1, 2006 Purpose: To assess dose heterogeneity to subregions of the heart (e.g. four chambers), and its relationship to tumor location in patients irradiated for lung cancer. Methods and Materials: 236 patients receiving 3D‐planned radiotherapy for lung cancer from ... Full text Cite

SU‐FF‐J‐131: Is There a Relationship Between Body Mass Index, Treatment Set‐Up Errors, and the Development of Myocardial Perfusion Defects Following Radiation Therapy for Left‐Sided Breast Cancer?

Conference Medical Physics · January 1, 2006 Purpose: To assess whether body mass index (BMI) affects the rate of “deep” set‐up errors (i.e. those that increase the volume of heart irradiated), resulting in an increased risk of RT‐induced myocardial perfusion defects (PD) 6–60 months post‐RT.
