Report postTreatment options
Hi,
Have been diagnosed with localised prostate cancer Gleason 7. I have just had a PET scan which will confirm or not confirm if it is localised. At this stage due to the localised nature i have other treatment options avialble rather than surgery. These include NanoKnife, focused external beam radiotherapy, focused brachytherapy or localised brachytherapy. Has anyone had any of the above treatment? What are your experiences? Thanks
