Atomic bomb survivors have been reported to have an increased risk of some cancers, especially leukemia. However, the risk of prostate cancer in atomic bomb survivors is not known to have been examined previously. This study examined the association between atomic bomb radiation and the incidence ...

In regards to radiation therapy, what we've found is that men may not suffer the side effects immediately. But the effects of radiation therapy, we found, are somewhat more delayed.
However, the main disadvantage of X radiotherapy is represented by the deposition of radiation also at the level of surrounding healthy tissues, leading to side effects. Although the ionizing radiation by proton beams (P) is currently more expensive and more difficult to produce, it has the ...

Urinary incontinence:This is generally rare in men who have had cryotherapy as their first treatment for prostate cancer, but it is more common in men who have already had radiation therapy. Scrotal edema:A more severe complication, scrotal edema occurs when fluid collects in the scrotum. Proper...
Radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy and immunotherapy is one of the most effective treatments for locally advanced NSCLC [3, 4]. In radiotherapy, the doses to organs at risk (OARs) must be reduced to limit radiation-induced toxicities while delivering a conformal dose to the tumor. ...

Prostate cancer patients who receive hormone treatments before undergoing three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT) do not have increased side effects compared with those not receiving hormone therapy before radiation, according to a new study in the International Journal of Radiation Oncology...
