A simple method for determining breast and chest wall thickness.

When planning radiotherapy for primary breast cancer, it is essential to determine the thickness of the chest wall in mastectomized patients and of the intact breast in patients undergoing conservation therapy. A simple method, based on the use of the simulator, to determine breast and chest wall thickness is described.

An analog patient model derived from computed tomograms for three-dimensional radiotherapy planning.

An analog model of the part of a patient's body containing a tumor is constructed by drawing anatomical contours obtained from computed tomograms on a set of transparent plastic sheets. The coverage of radiotherapy fields in the patient is visualized in three dimensions using the model and the light beam from the radiotherapy machine or a simulator. A clinical example is presented.
