DOI: 10.1002/cam4.5474
Abstract: Breast‐conserving surgery plus radiation (BCT) yields equivalent or better survival than mastectomy for early‐stage breast cancer (ESBC) women. However, nationwide mastectomy trends increased in recent decades, attracting studies on underlying causes. Prior research identified that… read more here.
