Key Points Question What are the radiation doses to normal tissues for patients with favorable Hodgkin lymphoma treated with modern involved-site radiation therapy? Findings This case series study included 42 patients with early-stage favorable Hodgkin lymphoma who were treated with combined modality therapy. The mean heart dose was less than 5 Gy in all patients, and the mean breast dose was 1 Gy or less in all 18 women. Meaning In this study, combined modality therapy for favorable Hodgkin lymphoma with contemporary radiation therapy delivered low radiation doses to organs at risk.
