While the initial investment costs can be high, cost-benefitanalysesshow stereotactic radiation therapy for lung cancer costs the health system less than other cancer treatments and conventional radiotherapy. This is in part because treatment is completed far more quickly. Formal cost-benefit analyses h...
Radiation therapyRandomized controlled trials provide evidence-driven clinical decision making in the management of newly diagnosed nonmetastatic and oligometastatic prostate cancer. Advances in technology (eg, multiparametric MRI, MR/transrectal ultrasound fusion biopsy, image-guided radiation therapy, ...
Although in use for over 40 years, proton beam therapy for prostate cancer has only recently come under public scrutiny, due to its increased cost compared to other forms of treatment. While the last decade has seen a rapid accumulation of evidence to suggest that proton beam therapy is both...

Seventy-four percent of men treated with a combination of radiation seed implants and external beam radiation therapy for prostate cancer are cured of their disease 15 years following their treatment, according to a study released today in the Internatio
High dose radiation delivered by intensity modulated conformal radiotherapy improves the outcome of localized prostate cancer. We present the long-term outcome and tolerance of 3-dimensional (D) conformal and intensity modulated radiation therapy for localized prostate cancer. Betw... MJ Zelefsky,Z ...
Radiation therapy (RT) for prostate cancer has made huge strides over the past two decades. The addition of image guidance has allowed radiation oncologists to ensure accurate delivery of increasingly precise radiation treatment plans using newer conformal therapy methods such as three-dimensional confor...
