Long‐term outcomes after treatment with brachytherapy and supplemental conformal radiation for prostate cancer patients having intermediate and high‐risk features

Abstract

High tumor control rates are possible with beam radiation followed by Pd-103 brachytherapy. Despite perceptions that brachytherapy is inappropriate for patients at higher risk for ECE, this series strengthens the rationale that brachytherapy-based treatment may be a desirable modality for such patients.
