Summary
This study tested a new way to give radiation after breast cancer surgery. Instead of many small doses, they gave fewer, larger doses (hypofractionation) with a simultaneous extra boost to the tumor area. The goal was to see if this approach causes fewer skin problems. 35 people with early breast cancer took part. The study found that this shorter radiation schedule may be safe and well-tolerated.
