Single Fraction Intraoperative Radiotherapy With Electrons: An Option in Breast-Conserving Operable Breast Cancer Stages 0, I and II - Prospective, Single-arm Trial
For patients with certain types of breast cancer, one standard treatment is breast
conserving surgery or lumpectomy (surgery to remove abnormal tissue or cancer from the
breast and a small amount of normal tissue around it) followed by breast radiation. The
radiation treatment in this situation usually lasts 3 to 5 1/2 weeks followed by 5-8 daily
localized irradiation (or boost) treatments at the site where the lump was removed. During
this study, the single dose of electron irradiation given at the surgical site during the
operation will replace the radiation given after surgery.
