Hypo-fractionated Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Localized Prostate Cancer
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is an observational study in which a questionnaire is used to obtain quality of life data after patients undergo a hypo-fractionated course of stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of their prostate cancer. The SBRT itself is considered standard of care for these patients and as such, is not an official component of the study.
