Abstract
Purpose Limiting the dose to the rectum can be one of the most challenging aspects of creating a dosimetric external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) plan for prostate cancer treatment. Rectal sparing devices such as hydrogel spacers offer the prospect of increased space between the prostate and rectum, causing reduced rectal dose and potentially reduced injury. This study sought to help identify patients at higher risk of developing rectal injury...
