issue."

Giordano believes that this study will encourage patients in need of radiation therapy for breast cancer to proceed with treatment without fear.

"A substantial number of women, especially those who are older, don't get radiation when they should - for example after a lumpectomy. We really don't know why they don't get radiation, but we have to theorize that maybe it's due to concerns over toxicity," Giordano says. "This study should reassure all patients that radiation has become safer and there is little, if any, risk of future ischemic heart disease due to having received radiation."
