New NHS radiotherapy set to ‘transform’ treatment for thousands of men with prostate cancer

The NHS is introducing advanced radiotherapy for prostate cancer, which is the most common cancer among men in the UK, affecting over 55,000 individuals annually. This new treatment is expected to transform care for thousands of patients in England. A primary benefit of this advanced medical approach is the significant reduction in the number of required treatment sessions, which will be cut from twenty down to just five for eligible patients.
