Abstract
Hypofractionation for prostate cancer delivers relatively high doses of radiation per treatment. Prospective studies support the safety of moderate hypofractionation, while extreme fractionation may have greater toxicity. Both show promising cancer control but long-term results of noninferiority studies of both methods are required before use in routine treatment outside of clinical protocols.
