Personalized Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer
Curr Oncol. 2024 Mar 20;31(3):1588-1599. doi: 10.3390/curroncol31030121.ABSTRACTBreast cancer is diagnosed in nearly 3 million people worldwide. Radiation therapy is an integral component of disease management for patients with breast cancer, and is used after breast-conserving surgery or a mastectomy to reduce the risk of a local recurrence. The following review describes the methods used to personalize radiation therapy by optimizing patient selection, using advanced treatment techniques to lessen the radiation dose to normal organs, and using hypofractionation in order to shorten the duration of radiation treatment.PMID...

The Role of Adjuvant Radiotherapy in the Treatment of Breast Cancer
Curr Oncol. 2024 Feb 24;31(3):1207-1220. doi: 10.3390/curroncol31030090.ABSTRACTThe role of postmastectomy radiotherapy and regional nodal irradiation after radical mastectomy is defined in high-risk patients with locally advanced tumors, positive margins, and unfavorable biology. The benefit of postmastectomy radiotherapy in intermediate-risk patients (T3N0 tumors) remains a matter of controversy. It has been demonstrated that radiotherapy after breast-conserving surgery lowers the locoregional recurrence rate compared with surgery alone and improves the overall survival rate. In patients with four or more positive lymph ...
