The AccuBoost Story
The tried and true main-stream practice of whole breast irradiation (WBI) following lumpectomy has an excellent record that spans over 3 decades. The WBI procedure includes an all-important “boost” phase. Treatments delivered with the proprietary AccuBoost Applicators, commonly referred to as the “AccuBoost process,” allow your radiation oncologist to deliver the boost dose under real-time image guidance. Recently, the AccuBoost process is being used for Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation (APBI) where the entire course of radiation therapy is delivered in 5-10 days. Characteristics of the AccuBoost process are listed below: • Non-invasive radiation delivery in a simple outpatient procedure • Using real-time image guidance, your radiation oncologist can target the target tissue with high confidence • Conformal radiation field – your radiation oncologist can match the target size, shape and location of the radiation field to your specific needs • Minimal dose to healthy tissue as the radiation is focused on the intended target, sparing exposure to the heart, lungs and the noninvolved breast • Uniform radiation field • Homogeneous treatment – no hot or cold spots in the field
