For patients undergoing prostate radiotherapy, acute toxicity is associated with late toxicity and decrement in quality of ...

Men with prostate cancer are living longer than ever, and our goal is to reduce the risk of late toxicities, such as difficulty urinating or rectal bleeding, that can impact a patient’s quality of ...

Acute toxicity in prostate cancer radiotherapy is linked to increased late toxicity and reduced quality of life. Innovations like smaller treatment margins aim to minimize early side effects and ...

Limiting toxicity by reducing the amount of mucosa exposed to radiation is a logical and practical way of minimizing the damage from radiotherapy in patients with head and neck cancers.

Radiation dose intensification improves pathologic complete response rates in locally advanced rectal cancer but also leads ...
