I will soon have the SBRT but Sept 2nd 2021 to discuss Spaceoar to help mitigate the effects of radiation on the rectum. I like SBRT because IMRT was very painful, well not the radiation but having to lay down with a very bad back,legs and arm. I have high volume G6 (8 of 12 cores) but one was upgraded to G7 at a second opinion. I've had it since 2018 wish me luck (NY Presy hospital)

Thank you so much for offering this overview. It was very helpful to understand SBRT which a family member will be receiving.

Great video and information.

[@johnston378]

Can't thank you enough!!! Excellent presentation.

[@kapisotieno2302]

a great lecture, the good new thing am learning here is the use of spacer between the prostate and the rectum. this is probably a great idea in reducing radiotoxicity to rectum, for short term and long term. however, if there is no strong culture and spirit of patient verification and image registration techniques and staff, the good treatment plans makes no difference in SBRT or SRS

[@LorenzoAscali-np1jv]

My question is I have BPH symptoms and will that go away after the radiation treatments.

[@roger1uk676]

Great great informative video!

[@tonyderrico4501]

Quick and concise explanation. Well done.

Great presentation! Very informative.

[@user-nl3ek1cr1h]

Would you recommend proceeding with SBRT if the prostate size is 73cc? And without a Spacsor?

[@billmarkelz]

Thank you this was helpful.

Can i do kegel exercises while i am in erect state or almost erect state i have the impresion that i feel the kegels better, do you think is just my impression? Do you think i can hurt myself in any way(my prostate) if i am doing that?

[@Jagkhalsa]

Excellent talk, Dr. Kishan. I wonder if you can comment on SBRT as appropriate therapy if any, for BCR at 4 yr post-robotic prostatectomy but without any evidence of cancer by 2 negative DCFPYl PET scans 2 years apart.

[@roberthunter8232]

I'm at 4 fractions and the 5th next week. I'm experiencing the side effects and hope they don't get much worse. My caveat is Cancer stem cells and conventional medical has no answers for that so I did My due diligence and there's good information out there. Like COVID-19..84, conventional medical did and still does reject anything that is proven to work but is outside the Overton window of medicine and Big pharma profits. Physicians are conservative and resistant to change until it comes from Big pharma. It is what it is.

[@evanc6303]

Hi, Can you explain your side effects? After one month do you still have any? Also, can you explain Cancer stem cell? What info did you research? Thanks

[@kcthedog6444]

Very nice preso. Dr. Kishan... my PETCT/Axumin. Indicated PCA with a single mesorectal LN involved. Is SBRT still viable option for the prostate gland while we sort out additional systemic therapy for that met (like ADT etc..)? Is radiation therapy applied to LN as well? I’m awaiting rad onc consult UCSF for more discussion to develop treatment plans.
