Fig. 1.
Representative field borders/dose distribution for a representative patient with Hodgkin lymphoma and mediastinal involvement (delineated in the center with pink contours) receiving treatment with Mantle field, involved-field and involved-site radiation therapy (yellow) and to residual disease (blue) alone after chemotherapy. The heart (red) and female breast (pink) are also illustrated.

Computed tomography (CT) simulation fusion with CT component from baseline positron emission tomography/CT scan where patient simulation setup is different from staging scan (arms up vs down), illustrating the difficulty with target volume delineation in the axilla, supraclavicular, and cervical regions.
