A Randomized Trial on Accelerated Versus Standard Small-margin Radiation Schedule in Patients With Prostate Cancer Treated With Combined Brachytherapy and External Beam Radiation Therapy: Toxicity Outcomes and Patterns of Prostate Movement
We found no evidence of increased acute toxicity in patients who received accelerated treatment schedule. Provided that the target is properly delineated, a 3 mm margin seems to be feasible and safe when using a real-time tracking system.
