Summary

In this study, investigators plan to deliver a 8 Gy Tumor Bed (TB) boost using the Gamma Pod™ system followed by a conventional (50Gy in 25 fractions) or hypofractionated (40Gy in 15 fractions) course of whole breast radiation. The clinical target volume receiving 8 Gy will be the surgical cavity as defined by the surgical clips and post-surgical changes + 5 mm. The planning target volume (PTV) will add 5 mm to the clinical target volume to account for geometric uncertainties.
