Summary

This Cochrane Review investigated the role of delivering radiation to a limited volume of the breast around the tumour bed sometimes with a shortened treatment duration (accelerated partial breast irradiation: APBI) and found no clear evidence of a difference for the comparison of PBI/APBI versus WBRT for the outcomes of overall survival and cause-specific survival.
