Impact of clinical and pathological factors on local recurrence after breast-conserving treatment: CT-based localization for a tumor bed boost yielded better local control when compared with a surgical scar
Conclusions: The use of CT information during boost field planning could reduce the risk of LR among patients undergoing BCT. Neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatments for breast cancer did not show the significant difference in respect to the outcome of LR.
