Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated a correlation between radiation dose and biochemical response to three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy of localized prostate cancer. Patients at all levels of risk who receive higher doses of irradiation experience longer disease-free survival. However, ...
What is Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer? There are three ways radiation may be delivered to prostate cancer patients: by a machine outside the body (external beam radiation therapy), by placing radioactive materials inside the body (internal radiation therapy or brachytherapy), and by ingesti...
