    Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women, with postoperative radiotherapy posing risks of radiation-induced organ damage.

  • 2

    Deep Inspiratory Breath-Hold (DIBH) reduces radiation exposure to cardiac structures, significantly lowering cardiotoxicity in left breast cancer patients.

  • 3

    The SGRT system provides precise six-dimensional motion tracking, improving patient positioning and reducing errors in DIBH radiotherapy.

  • 4

    Combining SGRT with RPM guidance aims to enhance treatment efficiency and minimize setup and breath-hold errors in left breast cancer radiotherapy.

  • 5

    A study involving 20 women with left-sided breast cancer evaluated the effectiveness of SGRT and SGRT + RPM in optimizing radiotherapy outcomes.
