Intervention name:
Respiratory gating
Description:
10 minutes breathing motion monitoring during an additional CT scan to establish a more
accurate cardiac and LAD dosimetry compared to reality
Arm group label:
4D CT scan with respiratory gating
Other name:
breathing motion monitoring
Summary:
To establish if the cardiac radiation dose assesment is well aproximated with routine 3D
CT scan compared to 4D CT experimental scan with respiratory gating (breath motion
monitoring). The study population relates to left side breast cancers female patients
that require a radiation therapy treatment.
Detailed description:
As a standard of care, the postoperative breast cancers radiation therapy is generally
based on a 3 dimensions CT scan that does not incorporate the breathing motion by
definition.
Meanwhile, the patients must commonly receive the treatment in free motion breathing
condition.
More of that, the Cardiac dose, especially the LAD (left anterior descending artery) dose
has been established as the main cause of radiation induced ischemic heart disease (RIHD)
and should be consider in the first place.
In more concrete terms, the higher the LAD dose is, the greater the RIHD relates: arise
the LAD dose by 1 Gy means a 7.4% higher risk to cause a RIHD during the next 5 years.
That being said, to determine if the cardiac dosimetry and the dose-volume histograms
(specifically for the left side breast cancer treatments including or not the internal
mammary artery) obtained from a 3D CT scan reflect well or not the reality (which is
widely subject to the breathing motion).
Finally, because it has been established that a 4D CT scan can monitor the breathing
motion, it seems definitely interesting to compare it with the average 3D CT scan to
address this concern.
