Full-dose intra-operative radiotherapy with electrons (ELIOT) during breast-conserving surgery: experience with 1246 cases
BACKGROUND Previous studies showed that after breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer, radiotherapy may be applied to the portion of the breast where the primary tumour was removed (partial breast irradiation (PBI), avoiding the irradiation of the whole breast. We developed a procedure of PBI consisting of a single high dose of radiotherapy of 21 Gy with electrons equivalent to 58-60 Gy in ...
متن کاملBreast-conserving surgery with intra-operative radiotherapy: the right approach for the 21st century?
Wide local excision followed by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) to the whole breast has become the standard of care for most patients with localised 'early' breast cancer in the UK, Europe, and the USA. Local relapse rates are low, and overall survival figures have improved during the past decade, with the advent of more effective systemic endocrine- and chemo-therapy. A policy of EBRT f...
متن کاملTargeted intra-operative radiotherapy-TARGIT for early breast cancer.
Breast conservation by wide local excision for early breast cancer is now considered safe and should be considered default therapy wherever possible. Unfortunately, this requires access to costly radiotherapy centers. Many women in the developing world or for that matter in wealthy countries with large land masses and small populations do not have access to radiotherapy and are therefore denied...
متن کاملImproving 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 کاملTowards intra-operative diagnosis of tumours during breast conserving surgery by selective-sampling Raman micro-spectroscopy.
Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) is increasingly employed for the treatment of early stage breast cancer. One of the key challenges in BCS is to ensure complete removal of the tumour while conserving as much healthy tissue as possible. In this study we have investigated the potential of Raman micro-spectroscopy (RMS) for automated intra-operative evaluation of tumour excision. First, a multivari...
