Comparing cardiac radiation dose between accelerated partial breast irradiation and whole breast irradiation: A narrative review

open access: yesAnnals of Oncology Research and Therapy
Breast-conserving surgery with whole breast irradiation (WBI) is the standard of care for early-stage breast cancer which provides similar local control and survival outcomes to mastectomy alone.

Doses to internal organs for various breast radiation techniques - implications on the risk of secondary cancers and cardiomyopathy

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2011
Background Breast cancers are more frequently diagnosed at an early stage and currently have improved long term outcomes. Late normal tissue complications induced by adjuvant radiotherapy like secondary cancers or cardiomyopathy must now be avoided at ...

Partial Breast Irradiation (PBI) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Breast conservation treatment (BCT) is a combination of breast conservation surgery (BCS) and radiotherapy (RT). Conventional radiotherapy after BCS requires 5∼6 weeks of RT to whole breast followed by 1∼2 weeks of RT to tumor bed.

Partial irradiation of the breast: old challenges, new solutions

open access: yes, 2006
Breast-conserving treatment, characteristically consisting of surgical removal of the tumor and post-operative whole breast irradiation, is nowadays considered as the standard therapeutic approach for most women with stage I/II, invasive breast cancer ...

Phase 2 Trial of Ultrahypofractionated Image-guided Partial Breast Irradiation Following Lumpectomy with Optional Oncoplastic Reconstruction for Early-stage Breast Cancer

open access: yesAdvances in Radiation Oncology
Purpose: As accelerated partial breast irradiation is gaining widespread acceptance for low-risk breast cancers treated with breast conservation, its role following oncoplastic surgery remains controversial.

Accelerated partial breast irradiation with interstitial multicatheter brachytherapy after breast-conserving surgery for low-risk early breast cancer

open access: yesBreast, 2020
Patients with low-risk invasive ductal carcinoma treated with breast-conserving surgery (BCS) were included in a multicatheter brachytherapy APBI protocol. The primary endpoint was ipsilateral breast recurrence.

Treatment techniques to reduce cardiac irradiation for breast cancer patients treated with breast conserving surgery and radiation therapy: A review

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2014
Thousands of women diagnosed with breast cancer each year receive breast conserving surgery followed by adjuvant radiation therapy. For women with left-sided breast cancer, there is risk of potential cardiotoxicity from the radiation therapy. As data has

Flattening Filter-Free Volumetric-Modulated Arc Radiotherapy for Left-Sided Whole-Breast, Partial-Breast, and Postmastectomy Irradiations

open access: yesJournal of Medical Physics, 2022
Purpose: Unflattened photon beams exhibit many benefits over traditional flattened beams for radiotherapy (RT), but comprehensive evaluations of dosimetric results and beam-on time using flattening filter-free (FFF) beams for all types of breast ...
