Study Details

Brief summary:

The study is being done to compare the side effects between two different radiation techniques, standard non-adaptive radiation therapy vs. daily adaptive radiation therapy and also comparing two different bladder filling instructions to find out if customized bladder instructions may lead to better treatment outcomes.
