DOI: 10.3390/biology11030435
Abstract: Simple Summary Moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy (HFRT) has been shown to be isoeffective compared to conventional regimens in the treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). In addition, dose-escalation improves biochemical or metastasis control with minimal toxicity, although… read more here.
