Delineation guidelines for the lymphatic target volumes in 'prone crawl' radiotherapy treatment position for breast cancer patients.

Our recently developed prone crawl position (PCP) for radiotherapy of breast cancer patients with lymphatic involvement showed promising preliminary data and it is being optimized for clinical use. An important aspect in this process is making new, position specific delineation guidelines to ensure delineation (for treatment planning) is uniform across different centers. The existing ESTRO and PROCAB guidelines for supine position (SP) were adapted for PCP.

Breast implant seroma: A SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine side effect.

Fluid collection surrounding breast implants, called seroma, is a frequent issue that has diverse etiologies. We describe a 48-year-old woman with an acute onset of bilateral breast swelling occurring 5 years after aesthetic surgery and 10 days after a second SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine dose. At breast ultrasound, we found an abundant bilateral peri-implant seroma.

Inconclusive triple diagnosis in breast cancer imaging: is there a place for scintimammography?

Unlabelled: Scintimammography (SM) can be used as a complementary test to mammography in patients with suspected breast cancers. This study was undertaken to evaluate the impact of SM on the management of patients with a doubtful or discordant triple diagnosis-that is, mammography, ultrasound, and fine-needle aspiration cytology. The clinical question was variable: initial diagnosis of cancer, suspicion of recurrence, doubtful tumor extension, or search for a primary tumor.
