About

Sally Goudreau is a radiation oncologist whose research has meaningfully advanced the field of breast cancer radiotherapy, with a particular focus on stereotactic partial breast irradiation (S-PBI) for early-stage disease. Her most significant contributions center on accelerated, hypofractionated radiation techniques that reduce treatment burden for patients following lumpectomy, investigating both 5-fraction and single-fraction stereotactic approaches using robotic delivery systems. Her 2017 phase 1 dose-escalation trial examining 5-fraction S-PBI has garnered 66 citations, establishing foundational safety and feasibility data that informed subsequent multi-institutional work. Goudreau has also contributed practical innovations to the field, including a refined ultrasound-guided technique for placing gold fiducial markers in postlumpectomy patients, helping ensure precise tumor bed targeting during stereotactic treatment. Her cosmetic outcomes research further demonstrates a commitment to patient-centered care, rigorously documenting aesthetic results alongside clinical endpoints. By leading and contributing to prospective phase 1 trials across multiple institutions, Goudreau has helped build the clinical evidence base needed to potentially bring shorter, more convenient radiation regimens to broader populations of breast cancer patients.
