Abstract
Prostate-rectum hydrogel spacer application is a relatively safe technical procedure that is well tolerated and has a high technical success rate. Spacer application significantly reduces rectal radiation dose and results in long-term reductions in rectal toxicity, as well as improvements in bowel, urinary, and sexual QOL.
