So, I am kind of confused.
I was reading the excellent article by Yalalom on the Involved Field definitions and I just can't understand this...
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12078908
"Unilateral cervical/supraclavicular region
Medial Border
If the supraclavicular nodes are not involved, place the border at the ipsilateral transverse processes, except when medial nodes close to the vertebral bodies are seen on the inital staging neck CT scan."
Isn't that like dangerously close?
Does he actually mean the tip of the transverse processes?
