Improving radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery.
Drs. Mouw and Harris have reviewed data from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) and from selected institutional experiences with whole breast irradiation (WBI), usually delivered with tangent pair radiation therapy (RT) over 5 to 7 weeks, accelerated whole-breast irradiation (AWBI), usually delivered over 3 to 4 weeks, and accelerated partial-breast irradiation (APBI), usually delivered in a sin...
متن کاملDo All Patients Require Radiotherapy after Breast-Conserving Surgery?
Radiotherapy following breast conservation is routine in the treatment of breast cancer. This creates a large demand for radiotherapy services with implicit cost effects and potential morbidity to patients. Radiotherapy is administered to decrease local recurrence, but is radiotherapy required for all breast cancers? A literature search using the Medline and Ovid databases was conducted between...
متن کاملComparison of “heart and lung volume absorbed dose” between electron and photon boost radiotherapy after breast conserving surgery
Background: Breast conserving surgery (BCS) followed by radiotherapy (RT) has been widely accepted as the standard treatment in early stages of invasive breast cancer. The standard technique of RT includes whole breast irradiation (WBI). Additional tumor bed boost irradiation has also an important role in the local tumor control. But there are various controversial delivery methods. The aim of ...
متن کاملRe: Breast-conserving surgery with or without radiotherapy: pooled-analysis for risks of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence and mortality.
BACKGROUND The objective of the study was to investigate whether radiotherapy or its omission after breast-conserving surgery has measurable consequences on local tumor growth and patient survival. METHODS We conducted a pooled analysis of published randomized clinical trials that compared radiotherapy versus no radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery. The outcomes studied were ipsilater...
متن کاملDosimetric absorption of intensity-modulated radiotherapy compared with conventional radiotherapy in breast-conserving surgery
The aim of this study was to investigate the dosimetric benefits between intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and conventional radiotherapy (CR) among patients receiving breast-conserving surgery. A dosimetric comparison of IMRT and CR was evaluated in 20 patients with early-stage breast cancer using a three-dimensional treatment planning system. The prescribed mammary gland dose was complet...
