Abstract
Conclusion: In the localized radiotherapy of prostate cancer in stage T1 or T2 the best protection for bladder and rectum was achieved by a 3D-planned conformal 6-field technique. If the seminal vesicles have been included in the target volume and in the case of large planning target volume other techniques should be taken for a better protection for organs at risk e. g. a 3D-planned 4-field technique box technique.
