Eftychia Tataridou, Medical Doctor at Theageneio Anticancer Hospital of Thessaloniki, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“Advancing cardiac protection in breast radiotherapy.
I had the opportunity to present on Deep Inspiration Breath Hold (DIBH) at the conference ‘Modern Therapeutic Approaches for the Oncologic Patient‘ (Drama, April 2026).
DIBH is not just a technical refinement it is a clinically meaningful strategy that significantly reduces cardiac exposure, particularly to critical substructures such as the LAD, while maintaining optimal target coverage.
As survivorship improves, integrating heart-sparing techniques like DIBH becomes essential in delivering truly precision-driven, long-term safe radiotherapy.”
