The Facts That Matter
Survival is Equivalent
Large clinical trials show no survival advantage for mastectomy over breast-conserving therapy in Stage I/II breast.
Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI)
APBI is a shorter form of radiation therapy for some women with early-stage breast cancer.
Instead of treating the entire breast over several weeks, APBI targets only the area where the tumor was removed. This allows treatment to be completed in just a few days, rather than many weeks.
Treatment Duration
- Up to 5 visits: 1-week or less
- Traditional Radiation: several weeks
Low Recurrence Rates
- Mastectomy (~7%)
- Lumpectomy + radiation (~8%)
Better Breast Preservation
- 90% of patients report cosmetic results as good to excellent
- 98% of patients would choose breast-conserving therapy over mastectomy
What to Expect
Before Treatment
• Imaging Review (CT + PET Scan)
• Personalized Treatment Planning
During Treatment
• Painless, non-invasive sessions
• Typically, 3-5 visits over 1-2 weeks
After Treatment
• No recovery downtime
• Follow-up imaging to monitor response to treatment
• Ongoing coordination with your care team
Guideline Supported Care
National Consensus statements and major clinical trials support breast-conserving therapy as: “An appropriate and preferred primary treatment for most women with Stage I & II breast cancer.”

What Is SBRT?
SBRT is an advanced radiation therapy that targets tumors with sub-millimeter accuracy. Unlike conventional radiation, which may take weeks, SBRT completes treatment in days—protecting healthy tissue and helping patients maintain their daily routines.
Technology Designed for Precision
We use CyberKnife® and Varian TrueBeam® to treat tumors anywhere in the body, even those that move with breathing or normal motion. Advanced imaging and real-time tracking mean no restrictive frames, no breath-holding, and no invasive procedures.
Care All in One Place
Technology is only part of the equation. At CRC, every step—nursing, care coordination, therapy, dosimetry, and oncology—is handled in-house, creating a seamless, patient-centered experience from consultation to treatment completion.
