[Left-sided breast cancer locoregional radiation therapy with rotational intensity-modulated irradiation and deep inspiration breath hold: Dosimetric comparison].

CONCLUSION: Rotational intensity-modulated radiotherapy with deep inspiration breath hold is associated with better sparing of the heart, on the right and left anterior descending coronary arteries, and on the aortic valve, compared with free breathing techniques, for adjuvant left breast cancer locoregional irradiation.
