Integrating partial breast irradiation into surgical practice and clinical trials

Abstract
The use of accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) in place of whole-breast irradiation (WBI) for breast-conservation therapy (BCT) is an area of intensive clinical investigation. This article describes evolving methods of APBI in comparison to WBI and in the setting of ongoing clinical trials.
