Advanced MRI guides quicker, sharper radiation blast against prostate cancer

NCT ID NCT03778112

Summary

This study is testing whether using advanced MRI scans to guide radiation therapy can improve treatment for prostate cancer. The goal is to deliver a stronger, more focused dose of radiation in a shorter time—either 5 or 28 sessions—depending on what the MRI scan shows. Researchers want to see if this approach better controls the cancer while causing fewer long-term side effects for the 54 men in the study.
