Reports on a study of prostate cancer patients treated with conventional external beam radiation therapy (XRT) at the Massachusetts General Hospital. Analysis of outcomes based on prostate-spe...
While both modalities are generally viewed as comparable when matched for risk stratification, there is a paucity of literature directly comparing their outcomes. Slow-growing malignancies are generally regarded as less radiation-sensitive, but this has not been conclusively proven in prostate cancer. ...
Survival benefit for early initiation of hormone ablation therapy in patients who fail definitive XRT for prostate cancer (ACP)Using the Forster equations we have estimated the rate of energy transfer from tryptophans to hemes in hemoglobin. We computed the orientation factors and the consequent ...
