The assessing physicians impression was that there is no worrisome parenchymal or leptomeningeal enhancement and did not recommend any

after iADT and recurrence: SATURN trial
Upshot. Intense short term ADT and radiation therapy for "oligorecurrence" after iADT https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0302283824000587 The reason you have to like it is that it should not require new drug development and trials etc. I wonder if it would be applicable to oligorecurrence

Scientific fact-check, please?
I’m working on page 44 of my cancer comic, and I’m trying to explain how radiation therapy works, in very generalized terms. Obviously I’m simplifying and stylizing some of the cellular level stuff, but can the more scientific of y’all check the overall factual nature of the page? I’m going to ask the

PSA Bounce After Radiation Therapy

post radiation. Currently on ADT. PSA slight increase ?
Hey all, My father who started at 226PSA has finished radiation treatment about a year ago.: and remains on ADT. his PSA was sitting 0.03 but has jumped to 0.08. Is this any cause for concern? I took it as a positive as it sounds extremely low but now second guessing ..

question about chemo for recurring tumour
He has had an enlarged biopsy, a removal of tumour,
radiotherapy
x 2, months of TMZ and avastin. We’ve had 6 months of stable scans and no chemo which has been amazing. Recent scan showed regrowth and the oncologist is recommending lomustine and avastin.

ADT with radiation?
I have a G 4+3, considered to be unfavorable intermediate risk, but a Decipher score of .4, considered to be low risk. I have opted to have radiation to treat my PCa. Do I need to take ADT with the radiation therapy? My MO suggested 4 to 6 months of Orgavix (not sure if I'm spelling it correctly). If

Is it PSA recurrence or not...
My friend had a radical prostatectomy a year ago. Since then his monthly PSA results were stable, at 0.006 3 months ago his PSA went from 0.006 to 0.012, then the next month to 0.029. His MO wanted to see the third month's results in order to consider salvage radiation therapy. Luckily, third month's

Barrigel is now preferred over "SpaceOAR" gel?
Consulted by video with the doctor who is supposed to install my SpaceOAR in preparation for my IMRT. His first words were "we don't use SpaceOAR gel anymore. We use Barrigel." He explains it has fewer side effects but the same radiation absorption characteristics. Here is what "UroToday" says:
