متن کاملEvaluation of regional nodes irradiation during breast cancer radiotherapy
Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate nodal irradiation with conventional three-field's technique. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients with breast cancer were enrolled in this study. Computed tomography scans in the supine treatment position were imported into a treatment planning system. Levels I-III axillary and supraclavicular nodes were identified and their depths to the a...
متن کاملAccelerated partial breast irradiation as sole radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery for early stage breast cancer.
Authors' conclusions Based on the available evidence, the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association Medical Advisory Panel made the following judgments about whether accelerated partial-breast irradiation (APBI) as sole radiotherapy meets the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association Technology Evaluation Center (TEC) criteria to decrease recurrence after breastconserving surgery for early stage brea...
متن کاملAccelerated Partial Breast Irradiation with Intensity-Modulated Radiotherapy Is Feasible for Chinese Breast Cancer Patients
PURPOSE Several accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) techniques are being investigated in patients with early-stage breast cancer. The present study evaluated the feasibility, early toxicity, initial efficacy, and cosmetic outcomes of accelerated partial breast intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) for Chinese female patients with early-stage breast cancer after breast-conserving sur...
متن کاملIntraoperative Radiotherapy Versus Whole-Breast External Beam Radiotherapy in Early-Stage Breast Cancer
There has not been a clear answer about the efficacy of intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) for women with early-stage breast cancer.The aim of this meta-analysis was to summarize the available evidence comparing the efficacy and safety of IORT with those of whole-breast external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) for women with early-stage breast cancer.MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Web of Science, and the Cochra...
