Urinary Organs at Risk for Prostate Cancer External Beam Radiation Therapy : Contouring Guidelines on Behalf of the Francophone Group of Urological Radiation Therapy
Résumé
The occurrence of genitourinary (GU) toxicity is a common adverse event observed after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for prostate cancer (PCa). Recent findings suggest that the dose delivered to specific urinary organs at risk (OARs) such as the ureters, bladder trigone, and urethra is involved in the development of GU toxicity.
