Abstract

High doses of irradiation may be focused on well-defined targets by use of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) under stereotactic localization, immobilization, and image guidance. The dose is better focused on the target and surrounding critical structures may be spared with SBRT due to steep dose gradients around the target. In the current study, we assessed target volume definition for SBRT of pelvic lymph node metastases from prostate cancer with comparative analysis of Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
