Postoperative radiotherapy with intensity-modulated radiation therapy versus 3-dimensional conformal radiotherapy in early breast cancer: A randomized clinical trial of KROG 15-03.
CONCLUSION: Compared to 3D-CRT, IMRT showed similar results in locoregional tumor control but superior results in planning target volume coverage. When IMRT is used in breast cancer, the irradiation dose to an ipsilateral lung and skin toxicity can be reduced.
