Evaluating the Predictive Value of the Dose-volume Parameters and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression on Rectal Toxicity in Prostate Cancer Patients
The results of the study confirm the correlation of VEGF expression with the pathobiology process of rectal radiation proctitis. However, the pathobiology process of radiation proctitis is complicated. More research is needed to prove the involvement of VEGF expression in the early detection of proctitis.
