Where this comes from

Abstract

At the occasion of recent meetings of the radiation oncology community, the description of a whole breast irradiation technique making use of cranio-caudal oriented wedge filters to compensate for dose distribution inhomogeneity in this direction has given rise to some discussions and misunderstandings. It is the scope of this presentation to describe the technique and its possible use for other localizations.
