Inclusion Criteria:

          -  Females or males diagnosed with pathologically (histologically) proven invasive
             mammary carcinoma (ductal, lobular or other) of the breast who have undergone either
             mastectomy or lumpectomy with any type of axillary surgery or axillary sampling.

          -  For patients who have undergone lumpectomy, any type of mastectomy and any type of
             reconstruction (including no reconstruction) are allowed.

          -  For patients who have undergone lumpectomy, there are no breast size limitations.

          -  Patients with non-metastatic breast cancer are eligible. This includes American Joint
             Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 7th edition left- or right-sided breast cancer clinical or
             pathologic stage I, II, III or loco-regionally recurrent at time of diagnosis. For
             patients that receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy, AJCC 7th edition left- or right-sided
             breast cancer pathologic stage yp 0, I, II, III are eligible.

          -  Bilateral breast cancer is permitted. Patients with bilateral breast cancer will be
             stratified as left-sided.

          -  Must be proceeding with breast/chest wall and nodal radiation therapy including
             internal mammary node treatment.

          -  Must have a pertinent history/physical examination within 90 days prior to
             registration.

          -  Age ≥ 21 years

          -  ECOG Performance Status 0 - 2 (asymptomatic to symptomatic but capable of self-care)

          -  Confirmation that the patient's health insurance will pay for the treatment in this
             study (patients may still be responsible for some costs, such as co-pays and
             deductibles). If the patient's insurance will not cover a specific treatment in this
             study and the patient still wants to participate, confirmation that the patient would
             be responsible for paying for any treatment received.

          -  Patients who are HIV positive are eligible, provided they are under treatment with
             highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and have a CD4 count ≥ 200
             cells/microliter within 180 days prior to registration as documented in the medical
             record. HIV testing is not required for eligibility for this protocol.

          -  The patient must provide study-specific informed consent prior to study entry.

        Exclusion Criteria

          -  Prior radiotherapy to the ipsilateral chest wall or ipsilateral breast or thorax.

          -  Any radiation therapy for the currently diagnosed breast cancer prior to
             randomization.

          -  Dermatomyositis with a CPK level above normal or with an active skin rash or
             scleroderma.

          -  Other non-malignant systemic disease that would preclude the patient from receiving
             study treatment or would prevent required follow-up.
