Conclusion This is one of the first studies showing a significant relationship between radiotherapy for breast cancer and cardiac systolic and diastolic function. Interestingly, these effects are already observed relatively shortly after radiotherapy and with relatively low dose levels, confirming that there is no dose threshold for cardiac toxicity. This study confirms the importance of reducing the dose to the heart and may provide opportunities for secondary preventive measures.

Material and Methods All women diagnosed with breast cancer within the catchment area between 2009 and 2011 and receiving post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) were eligible for inclusion in the study. A matched-control cohort analysis including 128 patients with IBR+ and 252 IBR-patients (controls) was performed. Cox regression models were used to estimate the rate of recurrence among IBR+ women compared to IBR- women. The potential confounding effects of tumour stage and treatment were controlled for. Follow-up was calculated from the date of mastectomy until the date of first recorded recurrence, death or end of study at 30 th of June 2016, whichever came first. For IBR+ patients, the implant was removed from the CTV in the radiotherapy planning images, and the target coverage (V 95%: CTV covered by > the 95% isodose) was compared between the IBR+ and the IBR- Median follow-up duration was 5.8 years (0.1-7.5 years). No statistically significantly differences were found in the incidence of recurrence rate ratios or in recurrence free survival (log-rank p = 0.142), OS (log-rank p = 0.096) or breast cancer specific survival (log-rank p = 0.147) between the IBR+ and IBR- groups. When removing the implant volume from the CTV it was evident that V 95% was slightly lower for IBR+ patients compared to IBR- patients: in the group of patients without lymph-node irradiation the means were 84% and 92%, respectively. groups. Results

Conclusion Implant based breast reconstruction before radiotherapy leads to a slight underdosage of the target, due to the build-up effect. However, no correlation with a higher incidence of recurrence or decreased OS was seen in IBR+ patients compared to IBR-patients. The recommendation to offer immediate breast reconstruction to breast cancer patients receiving mastectomy is safe according to the present analysis.

Acute changes in myocardial strain have been reported in the left ventricle(LV) globally following RT. More recently strain reduction within the LV apex has been shown to correlate with apical mean radiation dose. This study aims to document early subclinical LV myocardial dysfunction following breast RT at the segmental level and correlate this to RT dose Material and Methods Twenty-two patients (mean age 59 years (38-76)) underwent tangential breast RT. Deep Inspiration Breath Hold(DIBH) was not used. No patient received chemotherapy. Nineteen patients received 42.4Gy/16Fr to the entire breast, 3 patients received 50Gy/20Fr. Cardiac MRIs were performed immediately prior to, and 6-8 weeks following RT. Single breath-hold SSFP cine acquisitions were acquired in the cardiac imaging planes on a 3T Skyra MRI (Siemens). 2D strain maps in the cardiac short and long axis, 3D strain maps were
