The Emerging Role of Local Therapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer.
(2020-01-20)
PURPOSE OF REVIEW:This review summarizes the prospective clinical evidence regarding local therapy in metastatic prostate cancer. RECENT FINDINGS:The phase 3 STAMPEDE trial showed that prostate radiotherapy confers a ...
MRI-guided prostate adaptive radiotherapy - A systematic review.
(2016-06)
Dose escalated radiotherapy improves outcomes for men with prostate cancer. A plateau for benefit from dose escalation using EBRT may not have been reached for some patients with higher risk disease. The use of increasingly ...
Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy Recommendations in Response to COVID-19.
Purpose During a global pandemic, the benefit of routine visits and treatment of patients with cancer must be weighed against the risks to patients, staff, and society. Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers ...

Salvage stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for intraprostatic relapse after prostate cancer radiotherapy: An ESTRO ACROP Delphi consensus.
<h4>Background and purpose</h4>Between 30% and 47% of patients treated with definitive radiotherapy (RT) for prostate cancer are at risk of intraprostatic recurrence during follow-up. Re-irradiation with stereotactic body ...
UK Consensus on Normal Tissue Dose Constraints for Stereotactic Radiotherapy.
(2018-01)
Six UK studies investigating stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) are currently open. Many of these involve the treatment of oligometastatic disease at different locations in the body. Members of all the trial management ...
Pattern of Progression after Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer Nodal Recurrences.
Aims To report the relapse pattern of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for oligorecurrent nodal prostate cancer (PCa).Materials and methods PCa patients with ≤3 lymph nodes (N1/M1a) at the time of recurrence were ...
ESTRO-ACROP recommendations on the clinical implementation of hybrid MR-linac systems in radiation oncology.
(2021-03-26)
Online magnetic resonance-guided radiotherapy (oMRgRT) represents one of the most innovative applications of current image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT). The revolutionary concept of oMRgRT systems is the ability to ...
Factors affecting accuracy and precision in ultrasound guided radiotherapy.
<h4>Background and purpose</h4>Transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) is used clinically for directly assessing prostate motion. Factors affecting accuracy and precision in TPUS motion estimation must be assessed to realise its ...
