Comparison of CT-volumed supraclavicular fossa radiotherapy planning and conventional simulator-planned defined by bony landmarks for early breast cancer (2016)
Journal Article
Brunt, A. M., Lupton, S., Thorley, K., Pearce, L., & Handley, J. (2016). Comparison of CT-volumed supraclavicular fossa radiotherapy planning and conventional simulator-planned defined by bony landmarks for early breast cancer.

Aim A comparison of techniques, CT planning of the supraclavicular fossa and field based simulation. We highlight CT planned SCF radiotherapy which would be useful for a centre introducing the technique. Background Development of radiotherapy te...

Partial breast radiotherapy for women with early breast cancer: First results of local recurrence data for IMPORT LOW (CRUK/06/003). Paper presented at 10th European Breast Cancer Conference (EBCC-10)

Background: IMPORT LOW is a randomised, multi-centre phase III trial testing partial breast radiotherapy (RT) using intensity modulated RT in women with low risk early stage breast cancer, for whom late complications of RT are the dominant hazard rat...
