Abstract

In the context of breast cancer radiotherapy, there is scant data regarding the use of Active Breathing Control (ABC) system for breathing-adapted right-sided breast cancer radiotherapy. Herein, we report a case of right-sided breast cancer treated using breathing-adapted radiotherapy with the ABC system. We report a 45-year-old woman suffering from right-sided breast cancer who received precision radiotherapy with moderate deep inspiration breath holding (mDIBH) by use of the ABC system. Two different radiation treatment plans (with and without breath holding) were generated, and dose-volume histograms were used for dosimetric comparison of dose-volume parameters in both free breathing (FB) and mDIBH plans. In our case, dosimetric comparison of free breathing and mDIBH plans revealed clearly improved critical organ sparing through incorporation of mDIBH with the ABC system, which may have potential implications for routine adoption of breathing maneuvers for radiation treatment of both left and right sided breast cancer patients.
