Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) targets a smaller area around the lumpectomy site, shortening the duration of treatment and reducing treatment associated side effects. For appropriately selected patients its efficacy is comparable to whole breast radiotherapy. ...

Objective: To evaluate the safety, cosmesis, and clinical outcome of intraoperative electron radiation therapy (IOERT) delivered prior to lumpectomy for early-stage breast cancer. Methods: From December 2008 to March 2012, 75 breast cancer patients (ages 34-66 years) were treated with IOERT dur...
After wound healing, EBRT was applied in 31/38 patients with total doses of 23-56 Gy dependent on resection status and wound situation. The mean duration of follow-up was 2.3 years. A local recurrence was found in 10/36 patients, lymph node metastases in 2/35, and distant metastases in...
PURPOSE: To determine the risk of second malignancies after lumpectomy and radiation therapy (LRT), and to compare it with that in a similar cohort of early-stage breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy without radiation (MAST). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Between January 1970 and December 1990, ...
Between January 1980 and December 1985, 121 patients with early breast cancer were treated in the Department of Radiation Oncology at Westmead Hospital by external beam irradiation and an iridium wire boost following "lumpectomy". After a median follow-up of 26 months, 14 patients have developed ...
Imaging Cherenkov emission during radiation therapy cancer treatments can provide a real-time, non-contact sampling of the entire dose field. The emitted Cherenkov signal generated is proportional to deposited dose, however, it is affected by attenuation
