Abstract
A technique is described for the anterior and lateral imaging of the thorax during internal mammary lymphoscintigraphy. It permits reliable estimates of lymph node location to within 3 mm of the actual location. Use of the results from these measurements can be directly applied to radiation portal planning [for radiotherapy of human breast carcinoma].This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
