Summary

This study involves 30 women with breast cancer who will receive proton radiation after surgery. Researchers will use PET/CT scans to check how accurately the proton beams hit their targets. They will also see if any beam errors are linked to side effects like lung inflammation or rib fractures. The goal is to improve future radiation planning and reduce harm.
