- Women,age of at least 45 years

- Zubrod performance status of 0-2

- AJCC Stage I-II (T1-T2, N0 M0) breast cancer

- Maximum tumor dimension < 3 cm

- Invasive ductal, medullary, papillary, tubular, colloid (mucinous) histologies

- Unifocal breast cancer

- Paget's disease of the nipple

- Skin involvement by tumor, regardless of tumor size

- Positive axillary lymph nodes

- Distant metastases

Type of Study:

Interventional

Study Design:

Allocation: Non-Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment

Outcome Measure:

ipsilateral recurrence rate

Outcome Description:

Local recurrence is defined as either invasive or non-invasive breast cancer recurrence within the target volume. Elsewhere recurrence is defined as either invasive or non-invasive breast cancer recurrence outside of the target volume. Local control rate will be evaluated by imaging techniques, physical exam and biopsy, if applicable.

Outcome Time Frame:

5 years
