Understanding Radiation Dermatitis in Breast Cancer Patients
This study is looking at the experiences of breast cancer patients who are undergoing or have recently completed radiation therapy (radiotherapy). Specifically, it focuses on radiation dermatitis, which is a skin reaction that can happen during or after radiation treatment. The study wants to hear directly from patients about their experiences. You might be able to join if you are an adult (18 or older) with breast cancer who is currently having or just finished radiotherapy, and you are willing to share your experiences verbally while being recorded. The study aims to understand these patient experiences at the time you enroll.
