A clinical assessment of external beam focal therapy for localized prostate cancer measured by Gafchromic film

2017-04-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Traditionally, EBRT prostate treatments have been administered using three different techniques: three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT), intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT). These radiation therapy treatment techniques are often combined with additional options focusing on treating systemic disease and the entire volume of...
