    Large mantle fields offer reliable radiation therapy for multiple lymph node groups, improving treatment accuracy and minimizing side effects. This technique simplifies radiation delivery and is well-tolerated by patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiation Oncology
    • Medical Physics

    Context:

    • The established methods for irradiating lymph node groups often involve complex field arrangements.
    • Accurate and reproducible radiation delivery is crucial for effective cancer therapy.

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the large mantle fields technique for comprehensive lymph node irradiation.
    • To assess the impact of this technique on treatment reliability and patient side effects.

    Summary:

    • The large mantle fields technique enables simultaneous irradiation of supradiaphragmatic and infradiaphragmatic lymph node groups within a single field.
    • This approach ensures precise coverage without overlaps or gaps, significantly enhancing therapeutic reliability.
    • Reported side effects were manageable, with gastrointestinal issues controlled by chemotherapy and minor blood count changes rarely requiring therapy interruption.
