ABSTRACT
Two commonly used whole breast irradiation (WBI) techniques, deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) and prone positioning, are compared with regard to dosimetry and estimated late cardiac morbidity and secondary lung cancer mortality using published models. Forty patients with left-sided DCIS or breast cancer who underwent lumpectomy and required adjuvant WBI were enrolled on a prospective trial comparing supine DIBH (S-DIBH) with prone free breathing (P-FB) planning. Patients underwent CT simulation in both positions; two plans were generated for each patient. Comparative dosimetry was available for 34 patients. Mean cardiac and lung doses were calculated. Risk of death from ischemic heart disease (IHD), risk of at least one acute coronary event (ACE), and lung cancer mortality were estimated from published data. Difference between S-DIBH and P-FB plans was compared using paired two-tailed t test. Estimated mean risk of death from IHD by age 80 was 0.1% (range 0.0%-0.2%) for both plans (P = 1.0). Mean risk of at least one ACE was 0.3% (range 0.1%-0.6%) for both plans (P = .6). Mean lung cancer mortality risk was 1.4% (range 0.5%-15.4%) for S-DIBH and 1.0% (range 0.4%-9.8%) for P-FB (P = .008). Excess lung cancer mortality due to radiation was 0.5% (range 0.1%-6.0%) with S-DIBH and 0.0% (range 0.0%-0.4%) with P-FB (P = .008). Both S-DIBH and P-FB provide excellent cardiac sparing. Prone positioning results in lower lung dose than S-DIBH and leads to an absolute decrease of 0.5% in excess lung cancer mortality for patients receiving WBI.
