Abstract

The last ten years have seen advancements in other focal prostate- directed therapies as well as more accurate targeting and delivery of radiation. Proton beam radiation, high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), cryoablation, high-intensity focused ultrasound, and other nonradiotherapy treatments are among the therapeutic modalities that have been studied for the treatment of prostate cancer in an effort to minimize toxicity while enhancing cancer control. On the other hand, high-risk prostate cancer necessitates treating the prostate and any regions where the cancer may spread thoroughly. As a result, regional radiation therapy has been extensively studied in conjunction with the majority of new radiation treatment modalities, including SBRT, HDR, and proton beam radiation. The use of SBRT, HDR, and proton beam radiation is promising, though the data is still developing.
