Figure 2

Plot of cumulative absolute risk of radiation induced breast cancer as a function of attained age for a 20 year old female patient. The triangles represent the data from Hodson et al. [23] for mantle field irradiation in comparison with the modelled data for 40 Gy as the solid line. The dotted line marks mediastinal IFRT with the prescribed dose of 40 Gy. A volume reduction with 40 Gy INRT is shown as the dashed line and an additional dose reduction to 30 Gy is represented by the dashed-dotted line. Baseline risk is plotted as the diamonds.
