First seen Jan 29, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 18 times

Summary

This study tests a method called KIM that uses gold markers to track prostate movement during radiation therapy. If the prostate moves more than 3mm, the radiation beam stops and is repositioned. The goal is to see if this technique is feasible in 100 men with prostate cancer receiving standard radiation.
