简要总结

This is a study where patients with breast cancer who are planning to start chemotherapy will be randomly allocated to 2 groups in 2 :1 ratio. Patients in group 1 will undergo scalp cooling using a special device during the infusion of chemotherapy. Patients in group 2 will receive chemotherapy without scalp cooling. We will be assessing the patients at the end of chemotherapy to see whether scalp cooling reduced hair fall caused by chemotherapy. We will also be checking for side effects of the device and looking at hair regrowth after 3 months of completion of the treatment. Scalp cooling will be done during each session of chemotherapy.
