Prostate cancer (PCa) is a significant health concern for males globally, ranking as the second most diagnosed cancer [1]. In 2025, PCa is projected to account for approximately 30 % of all newly diagnosed cancer cases in men, with an estimated 313,780 new cases and 35,770 deaths in the...
Based on the radiobiologic studies which demonstrated that α/β ratio of prostate cancer may be as low as 1.5 Gy6,7, hypofractionation scheme using larger fraction size has been used for the treatment of prostate cancer. An extreme form of hypofractionation is stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT...
