Abstract: The objective of this thesis was to establish techniques for predicting and modelling moist desquamation (MD). The work in this thesis is based on the clinical studies of the novel Carbon Fibre Adjustable Reusable Accessory (CARA) breast support device. The epidermal dose measurements, treatment plans, and skin assessments from clinical studies of the CARA device were used to develop models to be applied during treatment planning to reduce the occurrence of MD in breast radiotherapy.
