Current application and research directions for partial-breast irradiation

open access: yes, 2007
Breast-conservation therapy (BCT), consisting of lumpectomy followed by whole-breast irradiation (WBI), is the standard of care for women with early-stage breast cancer.

Wide-volume partial breast interstitial brachytherapy alone after lumpectomy in breast-conserving treatment for earlybreast cancer

open access: yes, 2005
As most local recurrence after breast-conserving treatment occurs within 2 cm around the lumpectomy cavity, wide-volume partial breast rather than whole breast irradiation has been actively investigated with a view to decreasing radiation toxicities ...

[Partial breast irradiation].

open access: yesBulletin du cancer, 2014
Owing to breast cancer screening, breast cancer is more and more diagnosed at early stage. For those breast cancer women, breast conserving treatment (breast conserving surgery followed by whole breast irradiation) is commonly used since many years. New radiation modalities have been recently developed in early breast cancers particularly accelerated ...

[Partial breast irradiation].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde, 2022
Breast-conserving therapy (BCT), consisting of local excision of the tumor followed by whole breast radiotherapy, is nowadays considered standard of care for early stage breast cancer. For patients at low risk of local recurrence, partial breast irradiation (PBI) is an alternative treatment.

Update on Partial Breast Irradiation

Clinical Breast Cancer, 2021
For early-stage breast cancer, partial breast irradiation (PBI) allows for reduction in the irradiated volume of normal tissues by confining the radiation target to the area surrounding the lumpectomy cavity after breast-conserving surgery. This approach has been supported by phase 2 data.

Accelerated partial breast irradiation

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2011
AbstractWhole breast irradiation (WBI) is the standard after breast conservation surgery. However, WBI in selected patients has been questioned. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) focuses treatment on the lumpectomy bed. Many modalities of delivering APBI have been developed: multicatheter interstitial brachytherapy, MammoSite balloon ...

Partial–breast irradiation: towards a replacement for whole–breast irradiation?

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2007
Largely thanks to all of the investigators and patients who have participated in randomized breast-conservation trials, many women facing a diagnosis of breast cancer today can conserve their breast with the help of adjuvant radiation therapy. A standard course of radiation consists of 5-7 weeks of daily radiation treatments delivered to the whole ...
