- 2. Breast Cancer • Most common cancer in women • Ductal carcinoma most common • Treatment options: – Surgery + radiation – Surgery + radiation + chemo – Surgery alone (mastectomy)
- 3. Breast anatomy • Superior border- 2nd costal cartilage • Inferior border- 6th costal cartilage • Medial border- Sternal edge • Lateral border- anterior axillary line
- 5. Routes of Spread • Lymph nodes: – Axillary – Internal Mammary – Transpectoral • Lung, Bone, Brain, Liver
- 6. Immobilization and Positioning • First concern is the movement of the arm • Custom molds • Wingboards • Breast board • Headrest • Knee wedge
- 7. Simulation set-up • Disrobe from waist up • Lie supine, straighten patient • 3pt set-up • Both arms or ipsilateral arm only raised into position • Head straight or turned to contralateral side • Wires and BBs
- 8. Treatment techniques • Tangentials • Tangentials + Sclav • Tangentials + Sclav + PAB • Tangentials + Sclav + PAB + Internal Mammary • FinF • IGRT
