Comparison of accelerated partial breast irradiation via multicatheter interstitial brachytherapy versus whole breast radiation
BACKGROUND Brachytherapy as adjuvant treatment for early-stage breast cancer has become widely available and offers patients an expedited treatment schedule. Given this, many women are electing to undergo brachytherapy in lieu of standard fractionation radiotherapy. We compare outcomes between patients treated with accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) via multicatheter interstitial bra...
متن کاملThe American Brachytherapy Society consensus statement for accelerated partial-breast irradiation.
PURPOSE Adjuvant radiation after breast-conserving surgery remains the standard-of-care treatment for patients with ductal carcinoma in situ and early-stage invasive breast cancer. Multiple alternatives to standard whole-breast irradiation exist including accelerated partial-breast irradiation (APBI). Therefore, the purpose of this APBI guideline is to provide updated data for clinicians as wel...
متن کاملAccelerated partial breast irradiation using multicatheter brachytherapy for select early-stage breast cancer: local control and toxicity
BACKGROUND To investigate the efficacy and safety of accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) via high-dose-rate (HDR) multicatheter interstitial brachytherapy for early-stage breast cancer. METHODS Between 2002 and 2006, 48 prospectively selected patients with early-stage breast cancer received APBI using multicatheter brachytherapy following breast-conserving surgery. Their median age ...

5 Although the new American Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO) consensus statement on accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) reflects many important changes relative to case selection and inclusion criteria for APBI, we would like to address our concerns specifically regarding the recommendations on the use of low-energy x-ray intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT). The consensus sh...
متن کاملA Japanese prospective multi-institutional feasibility study on accelerated partial breast irradiation using interstitial brachytherapy: treatment planning and quality assurance
BACKGROUND In Japan, breast-conserving surgery with closed cavity has generally been performed for breast cancer patients, and accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) is considered difficult because Asian females generally have smaller breast sizes than Western females. Therefore, common identification of target and treatment plan method in APBI is required. A prospective multicenter stud...
