📌 Dosimetric Correlates of Acute Toxicities for Moderate Hypofractionated Whole Breast Irradiation: Implications for ASTRO Planning Guidelines ☢️ 🔗 advancesradonc.org/article/S2452-… @VishrutaD @JulianaRunnels @MountSinaiRO @ASTRO_org #BreastCancer #RadOnc 🔸 600 patients treated with HF WBI (42.56 Gy in 16 fractions or 40.05 Gy in 15 fractions) between 2018 and 2023 using 3D conformal field in field planning. 🔹 V105 % (cc) ≥ 50 cc and V105 %(%) ≥ 5% were strong, independent predictors of pain and other grade ≥ 2 toxicities 🔸 Keeping V105%(cc) < 50 cc and V105%(%) < 5% markedly reduced toxicity rates, supporting incorporation of relative dose-volume metrics into future guideline updates. 🔹 Optimizing dose homogeneity remains essential to improving patient comfort and quality of life
