Breast Cancer Radiation Therapy

Radiation therapy is a crucial component of breast cancer treatment, using high-energy rays to target and destroy cancer cells. It is often employed after surgery (post-operative or adjuvant radiation) to eliminate any remaining cancer cells in the breast or chest wall. External beam radiation delivers focused radiation from outside the body, precisely targeting the tumor site while sparing surrounding healthy tissue. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) offers a shorter treatment course, focusing radiation directly to the tumor bed. Techniques like intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and proton therapy provide additional precision, minimizing side effects. Radiation therapy may also be used palliatively to relieve symptoms in advanced cases. Each treatment plan is tailored based on the individual's cancer stage, type, and overall health. Advances in radiation technology and techniques continue to improve outcomes and reduce treatment duration, enhancing quality of life for breast cancer patients.
