One-Shot radiation during surgery aims to zap breast cancer better
NCT ID NCT02927912
Summary
This study is testing a new way to give radiation to women with early-stage breast cancer. During their standard lumpectomy and reconstruction surgery, doctors give a single, targeted dose of radiation directly to the area where the tumor was. The goal is to see if this approach kills cancer cells more effectively while also aiming to reduce long-term side effects like scarring and improve how the breast looks after treatment.
