Brief summary
The study was designed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of hypofractionated partial breast irradiation after breast-conserving surgery for low-risk breast cancer patients.
Detailed description
A total dose of 40.05Gy in 15 fractions was delivered to the tumor bed for each eligible breast cancer patients. The endpoints including loco-regional recurrence, cosmetic outcomes, and toxicities, were evaluated after treatment.
Interventions
deliver 40Gy/15Fx to tumor bed areas
