Brief summary
The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy and safety of the implementation of a program of image-guided focal Intensification dose to intraprostatic dominant lesion in men with localized prostate cancer (PCa) of intermediate and high risk (criteria NCCN) eligible to receive radiotherapy in the Department of Radiation Oncology of HUP (Hospital Universitario de La Princesa), within the established dose escalation protocol with intensity modulated image-guided radiotherapy (IMRT / IGRT).
