I saw this in news in Minday night and emailed Peter McCallum that night. To my surprise I got phone sells the next morning from intake and the head of breast care nursing saying they had trialled that method ten years ago and to their knowledge it wasn't being trialled again. So I sent the links where I'd read also about it. I dudnt persue it any further as the head if bc nursing said it had to be fine st time of surgery to catch any cells or parts that might be left behind or escape during surgery.
Has anyone had or know of anyone that has had this one dose radiation treatment.
