Article Synopsis
- The study evaluates the effectiveness of the Clarity-IGRT system in improving prostate positioning and monitoring during radiotherapy for elderly prostate cancer patients.
- It involved 25 patients aged 75-90, using a specific ultrasound technique to align treatment and reduce planning tumor volume margins, which ultimately aims to enhance treatment accuracy and minimize side effects.
- Results showed that patients experienced mild to moderate toxicity, with a manageable level of genitourinary and rectal side effects, suggesting that Clarity-IGRT improves treatment without increasing toxicity.
