No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the frequency of chronic breast pain about 8 years after the delivery of the radiation treatment, and to compare the frequency between subjects that received breast Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) and those that received standard wedge radiotherapy. The cosmetic result, meaning how similar is the treated breast compared to the non-treated breast, will be assessed. Also, the occurrence of delayed radiation treatment side effects including tiny red vessels in the skin, breast indurations (hardening of the skin), skin discoloration, oedema (swelling of the breast), and skin dryness will be captured.
