10 maj 2023 · External beam radiation for prostate cancer kills cancer cells by destroying the genetic material that controls how cells grow and divide. Healthy cells in the beam's path also are affected by the radiation, resulting in side effects.
Randomized trial comparing iridium implant plus external-beam radiation therapy with external-beam radiation therapy alone in node-negative locally advanced cancer of the prostate
External beam radiotherapy uses high-energy X-ray beams targeted at the prostate from outside the body. These X-ray beams damage the cancer cells and stop them from growing and spreading to other parts of the body (advanced prostate cancer).
19 kwi 2022 · External beam radiation for prostate cancer includes intensity-modulated, image-guided radiation therapy (IG-IMRT), typically delivered over five weeks, and hypofractionated radiation therapy (what we call MSK Precise ™), typically delivered over a week and a half in five total treatments.
21 sty 2021 · The external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) applied for prostate cancer (PCa) has been one of the most important and hottest research fields over recent decades. This study aimed to explore the research hotspots of EBRT in PCa and help the researchers have a clear and intuitive reference basis for later researches.
16 lis 2023 · We investigated whether prostate cancer patients treated with external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) have a higher cumulative incidence of secondary cancer compared with patients...
The main types of radiation therapy used for prostate cancer are: External beam radiation. Brachytherapy (internal radiation) Radiopharmaceuticals (medicines containing radiation that are injected into the body)
