Hi! Just weighing in with some feedback from MGH Boston as I met with proton beam team for second opinion as Dana Farber doesn't offer proton beam. At 57 yrs, ILC on right side (margins weren't great). Proton Beam was not recommended for my breast - biomarkers, etc all examined. I went with whole breast radiation (small breasts) -19 treatments with boost. I was so convinced proton beam was way to go but I will say the proton beam team was great at explaining why/how proton beam is not always the safest or best treatment. xoxoxo Good luck and I love this group!
