Inclusion 8

  • Minimum age: 18 years
  • Study condition: Breast Cancer
  • Participants with an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status \<=2 (or Karnofsky ≥\>=60%, see Appendix A).
  • Participants with the ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.
  • Participants may separately enroll on therapeutic clinical trials when they enroll on this trial. Note: All interventions on this protocol are standard of care, so enrollment on other therapeutic protocols is allowed at the discretion of the treating physician.
  • Patients must have pathologically confirmed invasive or in situ breast cancer.
  • Patients must have tumors in which adjuvant breast radiotherapy following breast conserving surgery is indicated, as determined by the treating physician.
  • Patients must be female. Note: Male patients are excluded due to the rarity of male breast cancer and difficulty in pursuing breast conserving surgery for male patients.

Exclusion 2

  • Participants with a contraindication to MRI per the MRI checklist.
  • Patients with breast tumor or tumor bed not visualized at CT or MRI during RT planning.
