Prostate cancer can be treated either by surgical removal of the prostate gland or by radiation therapy. Radiation therapy kills cancer cells by delivering large amounts of energy to tumors. External radiation is usually given by intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), which sends many small ...
Purpose: to develop methods to extract the true cross‐beam profiles for TPS commissioning and investigate its clinical impact on patient‐specific IMRT QA. Method and Materials: Two photon beam models, BM6 and BM4, were commissioned using photon beam profiles measured with a 6 mm diameter and...

Two seminoma and 10 prostate cancer patients were treated after earlier definitive external beam radiation therapy (EBRT), while the bladder and anal cancer were initially treated with EBRT plus iridium implantation. Six prostate cancer patients were initially treated by brachytherapy alone. The ...
We investigated whether prostate cancer patients treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) have a higher cumulative incidence of secondary cancer compared with patients treated with radical prostatectomy (RP). We used state-wide linked data from South Australia to follow men with prostate ...
