Abstract
more events. EPIC domain summary scores before and after radiation therapy is reported in the Table. Conclusions: VMAT with a gentle concomitant integrated boost of 2.3 Gy per fraction to the prostate was well tolerated in this study with only up to 3% grade 2 toxicity and no grade 3 or more toxicity. Three months to 1year post-radiation, the domains of urinary incontinence, irritation, and bowel scores maintained excellent function compared to pre-radiation scores. Furthermore, reduced dose to organs at risk (reported separately), reduction of treatment planning time and both individual fraction and overall treatment delivery time inherent in this approach, offer significant advantages for both providers and patients.
