ALGARA LOPEZ, Manuel. The different types of radiation therapy: external, brachytherapy and intraoperative. Indications. Med. segur. trab. [online]. 2016, vol.62, suppl., pp.107-112. ISSN 1989-7790.

Conclusions: We can say that radiotherapy helps increase the survival of patients with breast cancer; technological improvements experienced in recent years have contributed significantly to decrease toxicity; These improvements allow to concentrate radiation therapy in fewer sessions, even in a single intraoperatively in a very selected group of patients; and we must follow investigated patients to know that we can reduce our treatments, especially ganglionic level.
