Targeting MRS-Defined Dominant Intraprostatic Lesions with Inverse-Planned High Dose Rate Brachytherapy

Abstract

During the last 16 month period from 26 JAN 2007 to 25 MAY 2008, we have obtained the UCSF CHR re-confirmation. We have commissioned a new imaging fusion and planning system to facilitate the registration of MRI/MRS images with planning CT images. We have also published our results on the class solution for the boost of DIL defined by MRI/MRSI, as well as for the sparing of organs at risk including bladder, rectum, urethra and penile bulb. Patient's enrollment has been initiated.
