Abstract
The standard radiotherapy treatment for prostate cancer is intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT). An alternative option is proton beam therapy (PBT). PBT is a safe and effective treatment, but does it add value over IMRT? We explore this controversial question by examining the available dosimetric and clinical evidence.
