Abstract
Radiation therapy, being an integral part of the treatment of most non-metastatic breast cancer patients and contributing to the management in the metastatic setting (e.g. pain and other symptoms relief, palliation for skin involvement, ablative treatment in oligometastatic patients), requires a broad understanding by the entire breast team. This section focusses on the infrastructure needed for breast radiation therapy units.
