Radiation Therapy of Prostate Cancer at Stanford University: An Experience of 36 YearsRadiotherapy for prostatic cancer was started in 1910 by Paschkis and Tittinger in Austria who used a radium source attached to a cysto-scope. At about the same time Pasteau in France irradiated the prostate ...
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, ...
Radiation therapy is an effective treatment option for men with early-stage prostate cancer; it is used for definitive therapy in about one-third of men with clinically localized disease. Technological advances in the delivery of radiation... SJ Dibiase,SC Jacobs - 《Prostate Cancer》 被引量: ...
Radiation, along with hormone therapy, might also be part of your first cancer treatment if the disease has spread beyond your prostate into nearby tissues. If you get surgery for prostate cancer, your doctor might recommend you get radiation therapy afterward, too. It can be helpful if the ...
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 can be used to target disease that has spread to distant sites in patients who haveadvanced prostate cancer. Researchers found stereotactic radiation therapy could render patients free of clinically evident disease for eight to 13 months, delaying the need for hormone therapy or ...
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
Background/aim:This study aimed to evaluate the treatment outcomes of radiation therapy (RT) for localized prostate cancer in elderly patients aged ≥75 years. Patients and methods:We retrospectively investigated data of patients aged ≥75 years with prostate cancer who underwent intensity-modulated ra...
In the last years, the popularity of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has increased significantly for the treatment of localized prostate cancer, based on the assumption of a lower α/β for the tumor than for normal tissues [1], [2]. Prostate SBRT is generally associated with low...
