Advances in radiation therapy have led to the development of multiple methods to deliver radiotherapy accurately to a defined three-dimensional target. This technology is most appropriate in the management of early stage prostatic cancer. Precise delivery of radiotherapy can control prostate cancer while minimizing normal tissue (e.g., bladder and rectum) complications.
放射治疗的进展促使多种将放射治疗精确地投送至特定三维靶区的方法得以发展。这项技术在早期前列腺癌的治疗中最为适用。精确的放射治疗能够控制前列腺癌,同时将正常组织(如膀胱和直肠)的并发症降至最低。
