         Have any of you done MammoSite with ILC? I am looking at getting into a trial group (50/50 chance of getting in --meeting with Radiologist on Tues.) and have not yet had surgery (Nov. 9) which could also change the possibility. Let me know ASAP if any of you know or have heard good or bad about MammoSite.

    When I was first toying with the idea of lumpectomy /rads, I inquired.  My surgeon and radiologist said full radiation because it was ILC. 

    I ended up choosing bilateral mastectomy to skip rads.  I don't regret my decision.

    I am curious about the study and Mammosite with ILC.  

    Best to you with your decision.  

    Does this study have limitations (size of tumor, etc...)?
