Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation in Clinical Practice.
Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) has been under clinical investigation for more than 15 years. There are several technical approaches that are clinically established, e.g. brachytherapy, intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT), or external-beam radiotherapy. The understanding of the underlying biology, optimal technical procedures, patient selection criteria, and imaging changes during ...
متن کاملDosimetrical Evaluation and Clinical Implementation of a Strut-adjusted-volume-implant Savi Device Used for Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation
The SAVI (the Strut Adjusted Volume Implant) device is one of the most novel devices used in Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI). Various dosimetric parameters, as well as doses to adjacent critical structures, have been evaluated in 121 patients in this single institution 5-year retrospective study, using dose volume histogram (DVHs): Coverage Index (CI), cavity and planning target v...
متن کاملAccelerated partial breast irradiation: advances and controversies
The management of localized breast cancer has changed dramatically over the past three to four decades. Breast-conserving therapy, which involved lumpectomy followed by adjuvant irradiation, is now widely considered the standard of care in women with early-stage breast cancer. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI), which involves focal irradiation of the lumpectomy cavity over a short p...
متن کاملAccelerated partial-breast irradiation using proton beams: initial clinical experience.
PURPOSE We present our initial clinical experience with proton, three-dimensional, conformal, external beam, partial-breast irradiation (3D-CPBI). METHODS AND MATERIALS Twenty patients with Stage I breast cancer were treated with proton 3D-CPBI in a Phase I/II clinical trial. Patients were followed at 3 to 4 weeks, 6 to 8 weeks, 6 months, and every 6 months thereafter for recurrent disease, c...
متن کاملAccelerated partial breast irradiation using brachytherapy for breast cancer: patterns in utilization and guideline concordance.
BACKGROUND Accelerated partial breast irradiation using brachytherapy (APBIb) is an alternative to whole-breast irradiation (WBI) after breast-conserving surgery. We evaluated patterns of APBIb use with respect to 2009 American Society for Radiation Oncology consensus guidelines (ASTRO-G) in a population-based cohort. METHODS From Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data, we identifie...
