Purpose Utilization of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for treatment of localized
prostate cancer is increasing. Guidelines and payers variably support the use of prostate …

Radiotherapy (RT) aims to deliver a spatially conformal dose of radiation to tumours while
maximizing the dose sparing to healthy tissues. However, the internal patient anatomy is …

Background Hypofractionated radiotherapy for prostate cancer has gained increased
attention due to its proposed high radiation-fraction sensitivity. Recent reports from studies …

Importance Stereotactic body radiotherapy harnesses improvements in technology to allow
the completion of a course of external beam radiotherapy treatment for prostate cancer in the …

Purpose The effectiveness of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for localized prostate
cancer is tested. Methods and materials A total of 1100 patients with clinically localized …

Background External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) is a standard definitive treatment
option for men with localized prostate cancer and confers long-term prostate cancer control …

Radiation therapy to the prostate involves increasingly sophisticated delivery techniques
and changing fractionation schedules. With a low estimated α/β ratio, a larger dose per …

Background Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) delivers fewer high-dose fractions of
radiation which may be radiobiologically favorable to conventional low-dose fractions …

Purpose To convey the occurrence of isolated cases of severe rectal toxicity at the highest
dose level tested in 5-fraction stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for localized …

Background We report the outcome of a phase I/II clinical trial of stereotactic body radiation
therapy (SBRT) for low (LR) and select intermediate risk (IR) prostate cancer (PCa) patients …
