Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1)Voluntarily participate and sign a written informed consent form. 2)Histologically confirmed breast cancer, undergo baseline breast MRI or PET/MRI before treatment. 3)Undergo curative surgery for breast cancer (either breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection). 4)Postoperative pathology confirms invasive cancer, negative margins, =1 axillary lymph node metastasis, and clear molecular subtyping. 5)Age =18 years, ECOG performance status 0-1, expected survival > 5 years. 6)Complete surgical wound healing without wound infection, etc. 7)Meet indications and basic requirements for radiotherapy and chemotherapy, including normal peripheral blood counts, no significant abnormalities in cardiac, liver, kidney functions, normal ECG, and receiving standard adjuvant systemic treatment based on molecular subtyping. 8)Patients who have not received chest radiotherapy previously. 9)Willing to participate in the study, good compliance, able to cooperate with trial observations, and sign a written informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1.Pregnant or lactating women, or women of childbearing potential not using contraception. 2.Number of dissected axillary lymph nodes < 10. 3.Pathologically confirmed ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node positive (N3) or primary tumor T4. 4.Patients concurrently participating in other clinical trials. 5.Undergoing stage I or II breast reconstruction surgery. 6.Receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, targeted therapy, or neoadjuvant endocrine therapy. 7.Unable to start radiotherapy within 12 weeks after breast cancer curative surgery or within 8 weeks after completion of adjuvant chemotherapy. 8.Synchronous contralateral breast cancer. 9.Pathologically or radiologically confirmed distant metastasis. 10.History of prior radiation therapy to the neck, chest, or ipsilateral axilla. 11.Significant non-oncological internal medical conditions affecting the implementation of radiotherapy. 12.Uncontrolled neurological, psychiatric disorders, or mental illness affecting compliance, cooperation, and reporting of treatment responses.
