Instruments for determining clinically relevant fatigue in breast cancer patients during radiotherapy.

CONCLUSIONS: MFI-20 and FIR scores are highly correlated measures of CRF among breast cancer patients treated with RT. An MFI-20 score of ≥ 43.5 is suggested as a clinically significant score indicating moderate-to-severe fatigue, while an MFI score of ≥ 52.5 is indicative of severe fatigue.
