eContouring for Breast Cancer Case Library

The eContouring for Breast Cancer Case Library contains 3 cases, case vingette, and reference documents from cases from the 2017 ASTRO Annual Meeting. These cases give users the ability to practice contouring and to receive a metric score to compare the user's contours to that of expert faculty.

The purpose of these eContouring cases is to expand knowledge of breast and regional lymph node anatomy for radiation contouring and treatment planning, focusing specifically on post-mastectomy and regional nodal irradiation.  

Target Audience

This program is designed to meet the interest of radiation oncologists, radiation therapists, and radiation dosimetrists.

Learning Objectives

  • Utilize a common system of nomenclature and reporting to enchance standards of contouring, treatment and follow-up.
  • Demonstrate contouring of the CTV's and PTV's for breast cancer radiation treatment planning including post mastectomy and regional nodal targets.
  • Distinguish normal tissue anatomy for breast cancer treatment planning.
