Besides, we compared the effect of timing in patients receiving chemotherapy before and after RT. These results give a more complete picture of the effect of time interval between BCS and RT. The study’s population-based setting increases the generalisability of the results. A limitation of ...
818 women with DCIS and negative surgical margins were treated with breast radiation or no further therapy after a lumpectomy. Eight years following treatment, the recurrence of invasive cancer was

Post-treatment breastfeeding should not be discouraged, except for from the irradiated breast. Most women who have had breast irradiation can produce milk from the affected breast. Still, the amount of milk produced may be less than that of the unaffected breast, especially if the lumpectomy sit...
with blocks stratified by center and by timing of delivery of targeted intraoperative radiotherapy: randomization occurred either before lumpectomy (pre-pathology stratum, TARGIT concurrent with lumpectomy) or after lumpectomy (post-pathology stratum, TARGIT given subsequently by reopening the wound). ...
Timing of surgery after SBRT The time interval from SBRT to surgery was different in all of the included studies. The median time from SBRT to surgery was 9.5 weeks and it ranged from 1 to 28 weeks [15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24]. In 3 studies the timing between SBRT and surgery...

Breast cancer patients who receive breast-conserving therapy and radiation do not need a follow-up mammogram until 12 months after radiation, despite current American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) gu
