See full description
Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with breast cancer who have positive lymph nodes after chemotherapy and surgery. They must be scheduled for adjuvant radiation therapy and willing to undergo CT scans of the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis at the start of the study and again at 6 months if initial scans are negative.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study aims to find out how often systemic metastasis occurs in node-positive breast cancer patients by using CT scans before and after adjuvant radiation therapy over a period of about 6 months.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
CT scans are generally safe but may include exposure to low levels of radiation which carries a very small risk of potential long-term effects such as cancer.
