Intratreatment monitoring of prostate movement during radiotherapy
This proposal seeks to facilitate high dose radiation therapy for patients with prostate cancer.
The specific aims are to determine the impact of movement on 1) dose to the prostate and 2)
dose to the rectal wall. The data from this study will support a subsequent Phase II trial to
establish tumor control as well as morbidity reduction in radiotherapy treatments monitored and
gated to minimize intratreatment prostate movement.
