Summary

This is a pilot study. The main purposes for doing the study are to see if there is a relationship between lumpectomy volume and position as measured by USEI and by CT. This is not a study to see if the use of USEI is better than the current method of using CT for daily radiation therapy positioning.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

ultrasound scan

The only study procedure involved in this project is for subjects to undergo an ultrasound scan during their radiation therapy simulation. The ultrasound is done at this time, so it can be co-registered to the routine breast treatment planning CT scan.
