Computer Planned Radiation Therapy in Treating Patients With Prostate Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Prostate Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. Computer systems that allow doctors to create a 3-dimensional picture of the tumor in order to plan treatment may result in more effective radiation therapy. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well radiation therapy that has been planned with a computer works in treating patients with prostate cancer.
