- W1968048003 abstract "Randomized trials support the role of boost irradiation following breast-conserving surgery and radiotherapy (RT) in the management of early stage breast cancer. During CT-based treatment planning, boost planning often utilizes the CT obtained prior to the initiation of whole breast RT, approximately 4–6 weeks before the boost. Breast swelling can occur following whole breast RT, which may affect the localization of the tumor bed. However, the extent of volumetric changes following breast irradiation has not previously been reported. The aims of this study were (1) to determine changes in breast and biopsy cavity volumes following whole breast irradiation prior to initiation of the boost and (2) to use CT-based metrics to determine the adequacy of using the surgical scar to guide boost field placement. Twenty-six consecutively treated women with Stages 0-II breast cancer underwent CT planning to the breast in two sessions. CT1 was performed for treatment planning of the intact breast. CT2 was performed within a week prior to start of the boost, after delivering 32–48 Gy to the whole breast. After obtaining consent from the IRB, breast volumes were delineated on CT1 based on clinical borders, using catheters placed 1.0–1.5 cm beyond palpable breast tissue. Using image fusion tools, the catheters were superimposed on CT2. Contouring of biopsy cavities was guided by surgical clips, hematoma, and/or surgical changes, depending on which indicated greatest volume. Hypothetical boost treatment plans were generated using a constant margin of 3 cm around the surgical scar. Dose-volume histograms for the biopsy cavities were generated and analyzed for adequacy of coverage. Patient weights ranged from 98.8 to 263.5 lbs (median = 159.0). The mean breast volumes prior to and following intact breast irradiation were 755 cc (560 to 950 cc, all ranges represent 95%CI) and 736 cc (555 to 917 cc), respectively. This represents a mean change of -0.026% (p = 0.07). The mean biopsy cavity volumes prior to and following intact breast irradiation were 32.0 cc (24.6 to 39.4 cc) and 24.5 cc (17.7 to 31.2 cc), respectively. This represents a mean change of -24.7% (p < 0.0003). In 24/26 patients, the biopsy cavity volume decreased following intact breast irradiation. The relative reduction in biopsy cavity volume demonstrated an inversely proportional trend when compared to time elapsed since most recent surgical excision (r = 0.47). This relative reduction did not significantly correlate with breast volume and prior chemotherapy. When electron boost volumes were defined by the surgical scar on CT1, the mean percentages of volume encompassed within 90%, 80%, and 50% isodose lines were 77.2% (70.1 to 84.3%), 86.8% (81.7 to 92.0%), and 94.9% (92.1 to 97.8%), respectively. Those for CT2 were 74.6% (65.1 to 84.0%), 86.7% (79.8 to 93.6%), and 94.6% (89.8 to 99.4%), respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in coverage within these isodose lines between CT1 and CT2 (p = 0.37, 0.93, and 0.83, respectively). When the boost was planned on CT2 using only the surgical scar, the minimum dose treated to the biopsy cavity was significantly lower if the cavity was located in the inner quadrants (33.3% of prescribed dose) compared to the outer quadrants (68.2%) of the breast (p < 0.02). Larger biopsy cavities (> 20 cc) had significantly lower minimum doses treated to the biopsy cavity (36.5% of prescribed dose) than smaller ones (63.9%, p < 0.05). We did not observe a significant change in breast volume following whole breast RT prior to the boost. The majority of CT scans did, however, demonstrate a decrease in biopsy cavity volumes, suggesting that a boost plan generated from the initial breast scan provides adequate coverage of the tumor bed. The use of the surgical scar as a guide for boost treatment planning was often inadequate, especially for biopsy cavities of large volume or in the inner quadrants. These findings may help guide clinicians in the design of CT-planned boost fields" @default.
