Prostate-specific antigen kinetics after hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
Background: stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics after SBRT has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study is to analyze the rate of PSA decline and PSA nadir following hypofractonated SBRT in localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: From 2008...
متن کاملConsequential late effects after radiotherapy for prostate cancer - a prospective longitudinal quality of life study
BACKGROUND To answer the question if and to which extent acute symptoms at the end and/or several weeks after radiotherapy can predict adverse urinary and gastrointestinal long-term quality of life (QoL). METHODS A group of 298 patients has been surveyed prospectively before (time A), at the last day (B), two months after (C) and >one year after (D) radiotherapy using a validated questionnair...
متن کاملSystematic Review of the Relationship between Acute and Late Gastrointestinal Toxicity after Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer
A small but meaningful percentage of men who are treated with external beam radiation therapy for prostate cancer will develop late gastrointestinal toxicity. While numerous strategies to prevent gastrointestinal injury have been studied, clinical trials concentrating on late toxicity have been difficult to carry out. Identification of subjects at high risk for late gastrointestinal injury coul...
متن کاملThe effects of volumetric changes on radiation doses of the rectum and bladder during radiotherapy in patients with prostate cancer
Background: In prostate radiotherapy, changes in the volume of the bladder and rectum can influence dose delivery. In this study, cone-beam computerised tomography (CBCT) imaging was used to assess volumetric, and corresponding radiation dosimetric changes, for the bladder and rectum in patients with prostate cancer treated using VMAT. Materials and Methods: Treatment planning computed tomograp...
متن کاملSecondary cancers during the radiotherapy of prostate cancer: a review article
Prostate cancer is the most common and second leading cause of death among men in the world. Nowadays, radiotherapy has been known as one of the most affecting methods for prostate cancer treatment. Nevertheless, radiotherapy is accompanied by the concern of developing secondary cancers by the scattered radiation to the neighbor organs at risk. Several studies have shown that secondary cancers...
