Table 4. Equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions results for whole-breast (42.5 Gy/16 fx) and accelerated partial breast irradiation plans (30 Gy/5 fx).
SD: standard deviation; EQD2: equivalent dose in 2 Gy fractions; FB: free breathing; DIBH: deep inspiration breath-hold; Tomo: tomotherapy; APBI: accelerated partial breast irradiation; WH: whole heart; LAD: left anterior descending artery
