  5. 30. Radiotherapy treatment strategy for prostate cancer with lymph node involvement

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Amanda Östensson; [2023]
    Keywords : Radiotherapy; prostate cancer; lymph node; gold fiducial marker; multiple target;

    Abstract : Radiotherapy is a common and useful method for treating prostate cancer, often using gold fiducial markers in the prostate as guidance. However, when there is a high risk of lymph node involvement, the independent motion of volumes causes complications in patient positioning since there is a choice between position against the gold fiducial markers or the bone anatomy.
