Reducing the side effects of external beam radiotherapy in prostate cancer: role of imaging techniques

Emma J Alexander, Victoria A Harris, Aslam Sohaib and David Dearnaley

Imaging plays an important role in prostate radiotherapy. New imaging technologies have improved our ability to visualize tumors within the gland and allow accurate guidance of treatment delivery. Imaging is increasingly an integral part of ‘state of the art’ radiation planning and delivery, which gives the promise of increasing cancer control while reducing the side effects of treatment.
