Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Near D max values according to fractionation regimen and use of boost RT. HF (15), 15 fractions in 2.66 Gy; HF (16), 16 fractions in 2.66 Gy; CF, conventional fractionation. (B) Near D max values according to RT techniques and use of bolus material. CTV, clinical target volume; IMRT, intensity-modulated RT; 3DCRT, 3-dimensional conformal RT.
Article Snippet: Use of arc-based intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) (Elekta Infinity Linac, Elekta, Crowley, UK) was recommended in hypofractionated schedule according to a national guideline for breast cancer radiation therapy.
