Recommendations for cavity contouring

use consistent windowing for cavity visualization (WL=0, WW=500)

only patients with CVS ≥ 3 are recommended for implantation

the visible seroma with homogeneous background has to be outlined only

and surgical disturbances such as breast tissue protrusions/flanges around

the excision cavity have to be exluded from the contour

if surgical clips are present they have to be surrounded by the contour with

close contact
