Overview

Primary Prevention

Primary prevention strategies include: [1]

  • modifications of radiation techniques and doses (Ex: intensity-modulated radiation therapy, image-guided radiation therapy decreases the rectal toxicity while maximizing the dose to the tumor.)[2]
  • Identifying high risk patients, based on genomic study helps taking extra precautions in those patients[3][4]
