Introduction: We report on our experience of using Helical Tomotherapy (HT) in the context of post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) with or without immediate implant-based breast Reconstruction (IBR). Material and methods: The study included a total of 173 patients who underwent PMRT with HT between 2013 and 2015 in our institution (87 immediate breast reconstructions with retropectoral implants (IBR + ), 86 without reconstructions (IBR-)). The chest wall target volume included subcutaneous tissue and pectoralis muscle and excluded the posterior region of the implant as well as the ribs. Results: Median time to initiation of the first adjuvant treatment from mastectomy was similar between the two groups (p = 0.134). Dose coverage to the chest wall was significantly improved for the IBR + group (V95% = 95.1 % versus 92.0 %; p |
