The purpose of this research is entrenched in advancing the practice of 3D Conformal Radiation Therapy (3D CRT) for breast cancer patients by meticulously evaluating the impact of different Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) techniques on dosimetric parameters. This study aims to ascertain the quantitative benefits of varied breathing techniques, primarily focusing on the 'Ultimate DIBH' method's efficacy in sparing critical organs such as the heart and lungs.
The comprehensive analysis of different DIBH techniques in this research is not merely an academic exercise but is geared towards substantiating the hypothesized advantages of these techniques with empirical data. By generating …
