X-Ray Rx for Breast Cancer not needed

"Post-operative Breast Radiotherapy no benefit!" 

Postoperative Breast Radiotherapy in Question.  

No benefit in having prophylactic Radiotherapy following operation in low risk breast cancer (The Breast Dec 2009). 

This report shows that prophylactic radiotherapy in low risk breast cancer does nothing to prevent or reduce local recurrence or spread, and does not improve longevity. 

However, the patient is still exposed to all the toxic effects of the radiotherapy. 

These include the acute toxic effects of radiation exposure, lung and heart damage, long term dementia and cancer. 

Dr Gruba also believes that radiotherapy places the patient’s loved ones at risk.  Radioactive isotopes used in radio-scans, do stay in the body for very definite periods of time.  Much longer than the so- called half life of the isotope.  The isotope has to be eliminated, usually into the urine, which then winds up in Port Phillip Bay. 

All for no benefit at all.
