BREAST CANCER BASE

Generally, a site with only one course, radical radiotherapy achieved in a meeting, usually no longer OK 2nd radiotherapy. First, because of local organizations tolerance has reached the limit, two is enough of the tumor recurrence after radiotherapy, radiotherapy has the right not sensitive to radiotherapy often no obvious effect. Different sites can choose the length of radiotherapy, radiotherapy is only a partial treatment, and more reaction, especially from parts of radiotherapy, the cumulative volume of general-ray more often, bodily injury larger He often lost in this, it will speed up the development of tumors, and physical decline. Therefore, radiotherapy is necessary to find specialist physicians should weigh the pros and cons, do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages and will be used.
Yes or after conventional chemotherapy patients (mean no treatment), a three-year period course, a course between each separated about three months. No. 2, do two courses, separated by about six months time around, or within two years to complete five courses of chemotherapy. A course about every six weeks based on a 21-day cycle, a general course of doing two to three cycles. Some hospitals are also right to take patients with early breast cancer after chemotherapy for six months, or a month chemotherapy cycle, a total of six cycles do, will not be chemotherapy. Referring to the treatment for more stable conditions, the lesions had disappeared. If the remaining lesions, or an unstable condition, the treatment of chemotherapy and the time interval should be clinicians specific conditions. Yi relapse, treatment should be more to the short time interval. Difficult recurrence, slow development, the elderly or infirm, may be less treatment, the time interval can be extended. 

Cancer and radiation therapy are inextricably linked, breast cancer is no exception. Preoperative radiotherapy treatment, destruction and the surgical margin outside the brink of subclinical lesions, can reduce the size of tumor, and is conducive to surgery, but will also prevent surgical operation inadvertently caused local cultivation, can reduce the incidence of distant metastasis rate. Postoperative radiation therapy can significantly reduce the local recurrence rate of local recurrence or delay the time for the brain, bone metastases of palliative radiotherapy can significantly reduce symptoms and prolong survival.
Breast cancer is moderately sensitive to radiation cancer. The general scope of their exposure to three points five portal for. Bilateral chest wall that is tangent portal, Superclavical and axillary portal, within the mammary portal. The total dose of 4000 to the general 6000CGY, irradiation time to five times a week, a total of four to six weeks, each dose of irradiation 200CGY.
Irradiation is a doctor based on the scope and tumor biologic behavior and well-designed illuminated area, and ink used in surface markings on the skin, exposure to accurately obtain the best effect, while side effects to a minimum. Therefore, patients must be carefully maintained irradiation clear, bathing or more sweating in summer when it should provide good protection. The best way is to find a doctor regularly re-painted clear, but not to their depiction. To bathe, they should call a doctor depiction concentration after washing, as a depiction Xiankuancao later. If irradiated skin ink marks all fallen out. Find doctors painting very troublesome, even repositioning there are certain difficulties, it is very easy for errors, waste treatment time and costs. 
