Prostate Cancer Help
Practical, evidence-based ways to manage prostate cancer: how surveillance, surgery, radiation, systemic drugs, lifestyle, and mental-health support fit together.
Radiation Therapy
Radiation options for prostate cancer include internal brachytherapy (LDR seeds or HDR temporary implants) and external beam radiation (IMRT, SBRT, proton). Modern imaging and hypofractionation have shortened courses and improved targeting; side effects and outcomes depend on stage and individual factors.
Prostrate Cancer Treatment
Prostate cancer treatment is individualized by stage and risk. Early disease may be monitored with active surveillance or treated with surgery or radiation. Advanced disease relies on androgen-deprivation, systemic targeted agents, chemotherapy, and radioligand therapy, with decisions guided by biomarkers and patient goals.
