[Conformal radiotherapy of prostate carcinoma--procedure description].

Introduction: Today, three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy is a standard way in the radical treatment of localized prostate cancer, and it is an alternative to the radical prostatectomy. This method of radiotherapy treatment is widely accepted in the treatment of prostate cancer patients, and provides irradiation of targeted volume (prostate, seminal vesicles) with dose escalation sparing the surrounding healthy tissues (rectum, bladder) at the same time. That is not possible with the conventional two dimension technique.
