Alternative Treatment Positions over Supine in Adjuvant Whole Breast RT: Prone, Lateral or What’ Else? A Comprehensive Narrative Review

2026-03-02

Abstract excerpt

Whole breast radiotherapy in adjuvant breast cancer (BC) treatment is commonly delivered in supine positioning since more than 50 years ago. Its widespread use is related to the broad availability of simply and common breast board immobilization devices which exploit the natural recumbent position of the body with arms above the head, the good match with linac tables and well established set up procedures. However...
