摘要：
A recent landmark study reported the long-term results that compared a standard course of whole-breast irradiation (25 treatments over 5 weeks) with a hypofractionated course of radiation (16 treatments over 3.5 weeks) in patients with early-stage, node-negative breast cancer. The trial demonstrated equivalence of results with respect to overall survival, local control, toxicity and cosmetic outcomes.
