Health-Related Quality of Life After Breast-Conserving Surgery and Intraoperative Radiotherapy for Breast Cancer Using Low-Kilovoltage X-rays
2010
Background
Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is currently being evaluated as a novel approach during breast-conserving surgery (BCS). IORT can be used either as a tumor bed boost followed by external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) or as a single treatment. In a matched-pair study, we assessed quality of life (QoL) in 69 patients with early breast cancer treated with BCS and/or IORT and/or EBRT.
