Full guideline – February 2009
In July 2018, we updated and replaced this guideline with NICE guideline NG101 on early and locally advanced breast cancer. Further updates were made in 2023 to sections on arm and shoulder mobility and dose fractionation for external beam radiotherapy.
Some of the 2009 recommendations have been retained in the new guideline. This 2009 full guideline includes the evidence supporting the 2009 recommendations. Information that has been replaced by the new guideline has been shaded in grey.
