초록

Carcinoma of the breast has been treated by surgery followed by irradiation of the chest wall and regional lymphatics treatment planning of the breast cancer is required that lung must be spared as much as possible. However megavoltage irradiation of the internal mammary chain results in high dose to underlying heart, esophagus and spinal cord. Electron beam can be used for the irradiation of the internal mammary chain instead of megavoltage beam. We studied dose distribution of single anterior electron field, compared with traditional treatment methods. 12 and 15MeV electron beam with bolus has good dose distribution to spare underlying lung tissue and other organs.
