Summary

This study looks at two different radiation schedules for postmenopausal women with early-stage breast cancer. One group gets 5 daily doses, the other gets 3 doses every other day. The goal is to see which schedule causes less scarring (fibrosis) in the breast. 350 women will be followed for up to 10 years to check for side effects and cancer recurrence.
