Population based audit of heart radiation doses in 6925 high-risk breast cancer patients from the Danish breast cancer group RT Nation study
Background and purpose
In this study, we conducted a population-based retrospective audit of heart doses for high-risk breast cancer (BC) over a nine-year period in patients treated with adjuvant CT-based radiotherapy in a comprehensive and homogenized national BC cohort. Additionally, this serves as a demonstration of performing large scale audits with consistent delineations created by an auto-segmentation tool.
Materials and methods
High-risk BC patients treated with adjuvant radiotherapy in the period 2008–2016 from all seven radiotherapy centres in Denmark were included. A homogenized cohort was created using an inhouse developed auto-segmentation tool. The homogenized cohort volume and planned doses (mean heart dose (MHD), V20Gy and V40Gy) were evaluated. Volumes and dose metrics were compared for clinical and homogenized heart volumes.
Results
Among 6925 patients, 5589(81 %) had a clinical heart delineation. The median delineated heart volume increased from 531.9 ml (2008) to 638.5 ml (2016) (p < 0.01). The median MHD for the homogenized cohort was 1.58 Gy (2008–2016) with an overall decreasing trend, 2.14 Gy in left- and 1.08 Gy in right-sided patients. The median MHD in the clinically delineated hearts was 0.01 Gy lower than the planned median MHD in the homogenized cohort.
Conclusion
During 2008–2016 the planned heart dose has been low across the population. A volume increase was observed in the clinically delineated hearts, however the median MHD in the homogenized cohort was low, with 1.58 Gy. The study demonstrated the possibilities for full population-based and consistent dose audit by using auto-segmentation tools.
期刊介绍：
Radiotherapy and Oncology publishes papers describing original research as well as review articles. It covers areas of interest relating to radiation oncology. This includes: clinical radiotherapy, combined modality treatment, translational studies, epidemiological outcomes, imaging, dosimetry, and radiation therapy planning, experimental work in radiobiology, chemobiology, hyperthermia and tumour biology, as well as data science in radiation oncology and physics aspects relevant to oncology.Papers on more general aspects of interest to the radiation oncologist including chemotherapy, surgery and immunology are also published.
