Summary
This study looked at 140 women with early-stage breast cancer to compare two radiation methods after surgery: a shorter, more focused radiation (accelerated partial breast irradiation) versus standard whole breast radiation. The goal was to see which causes fewer side effects like skin problems, breast swelling, or pain. Results help doctors choose the best option for low-risk patients.
