PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate 24 month breast photographic cosmetic scores with 9 fraction radiation compared to standard hypofractionation. SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate Breast-Q patient reported outcomes (PROs) compared to historical control in breast conservation. II. To evaluate the incidence of acute and late radiation complications, based on Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) 4.0 toxicity. III. To evaluate the local and local regional recurrence rate. IV. To compare the direct and indirect patient costs for radiation therapy compared to historical controls as well as quality adjusted life years, utilizing the Breast-Q Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) and the EQ-5D. OUTLINE: Within 12 weeks after breast conserving surgery, patients undergo hypofractionated radiation therapy for 9 fractions over 2 weeks. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 2-8 weeks, 6 months, and annually for 3 years.
