First seen Apr 23, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study compared two radiation methods for women with early-stage breast cancer after lumpectomy: 3D conformal radiation therapy (external beams) and multi-catheter brachytherapy (internal radiation). The goal was to see which better kills leftover cancer cells while sparing healthy tissue. Only 6 women took part before the trial was stopped, so no strong conclusions can be drawn.
