They did remove all of the tumor surgically first- the T1N0M0 and the Tis (separate focus). My margins were clear, but had that separate focus (Tis) only 2.5-3mm from the anterior. We didn't see it nor expect that it was there. Everything around it is clean. I am currently 'cancer free'. My understanding is they want to do the rad for cleanup.
I am currently receiving treatment at Emory Winship in Atlanta. He took my case to tumor board where they recommended the radiation... No one has said anything about even considering chemo.
