Deskripsi

Deep inspiration breath-hold (DIBH) is an advanced radiotherapy technique that has been shown to have dosimetric benefits in the treatment of patients with mediastinal lymphoma. Whilst there is much published data on the use of DIBH in breast radiotherapy, reports on the use of the technique in mediastinal lymphoma patients remain limited. As the first NHS centre in the UK to implement DIBH in this pt group, we have evaluated our experience and success in using this technique over a 5 year period.
