Ultrasound-Measured Skin Thickness Changes in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Radiation

Quantitative ultrasound measurements of skin thickness appear to be a valuable objective measure for monitoring acute radiation‐induced skin toxicity in breast cancer patients. When combined with standard clinical evaluations and relevant biological data, ultrasound assessment may enhance the accuracy and consistency of toxicity monitoring, ultimately improving patient care in radiation oncology.
