given in 3,510 cases, and subsequent breast cancer diagnosed in 154 women, producing an overall relative risk (RR) compared to the general population of 2.66 (95%CI 2.2-3.1).Differences between groups were statistically significant (Chi square test p=0.009). Absolute excess risk of BC compared to the general population was 21.3 per 10,000 women for EBRT vs. 3.77 for no RT. In the EBRT cases, the RR of BC according to the period of radiation treatment was: during the years 1990-1994 RR 1.7 (95%CI 0.7-3.4); 1995-1999 RR 2.15 (95%CI 1.27- 3.4); 2000-2004 RR 2.5 (95%CI 1.7-3.5); 2005-2009 RR 3.5 (95%CI 2.6-4.5) and 2010-2012 RR 2.6 (95%CI 1.8-3.7). The difference in the RR between the time periods were not statistically significant (Chi square test p=0.7).

compared and differences were tested for statistical significance with Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results Results are shown in table 1. The Mean Lung Dose (MLD) was lowest with BVMAT+DIBH (34% reduction). The lowest lung V30 to V20 were obtained by fVMAT+DIBH, while V5- V10 were lowest with BVMAT+DIBH. Lung V5 was reduced by 49% with BVMAT+DIBH. The lowest heart doses were for fVMAT+DIBH with a significant difference from FB plans. BVMAT+DIBH doses were marginally higher but the difference was not statistically significant apart from V15 & V20. BVMAT had more effect on reducing breast doses, particularly V4 with best doses obtained by BVMAT+DIBH (67% reduction in V4).

Conclusion The relative risk of breast cancer in radiation treated patients with HD is 2.6. This risk has not lessened significantly despite a decrease in radiation field size and dose.

Butterfly VMAT (BVMAT) uses non-co-planar partial arc VMAT, limiting doses to lungs and breasts, but heart sparing may be reduced. In addition, deep inspiration breath hold (DIBH) reduces lung and heart doses. The aim of this planning study was to investigate whether the dosimetric benefits of BVMAT & DIBH are additive. Material and Methods Sixty four plans for 16 consecutive patients (age: 22-63, 12 females) with mediastinal lymphoma were compared. A free-breathing (FB) scan & DIBH scan were acquired for all patients. Four VMAT plans were produced for each patient: 2 FB plans (2 full arcs [fVMAT] & BVMAT) and 2 DIBH plans (2 full arcs & BVMAT). The BVMAT used double 60 0 partial anterior & posterior arcs & 2 craniocaudal 60 0 anterior arcs. Dose prescription was 30.6Gy/17#. Plans were optimised to achieve comparable planning target volume (PTV) coverage. Dose to lungs, heart, spinal cord, oesophagus & female breasts were reduced as much as possible. Mean PTV coverage & doses to OARs were

Conclusion Main benefit from DIBH is reduction of heart doses and lung medium-doses (V20-V30). BVMAT reduces low-dose bath to lungs (V5-V10) and breast without significant loss of heart sparing. The benefits of DIBH & B-VMAT are additive and result in maximum sparing of lungs, heart and breasts.
