About this trial
The study aims to reduce the PTV (Planning Target Volume) safety margins to 1-2 mm in stereotactic prostate radiotherapy for low- and medium-risk prostate cancers while maintaining a dose of 36.25 Gy in 5 fractions per day. By reducing the hems, the investigators expect a reduction of acute and late toxicity on the organs at risk, dominantly the urethra, bladder, penile bulb, and rectum, and an improvement in the quality of life.
