Cheriekhan: my brother was treated at weill Cornell by Dr Himanshu Nagar. Someone on this site sent me a notice that he was moving to MD Anderson, In any case, His prostate cancer was outside of his prostate and they gave him Lupron and they used specifically the Mridian machine for radiation treatment, which is a narrow margin machine with built-in Mri.

My Prostate Cancer was contained within my Prostate and I had a PSA of 10.2 but had the same machine as my brother with no ADT. I had a consultation with Dr. Nager as well as four other radiation oncologists. I was treated in Florida. I would strongly recommend getting additional opinions outside of the institution but through a center of excellence which can be accomplished through sending images, reports and a Telehealth consultation.

I just met with the team and him and they are not suggesting surgery any more but radiation followed by ADT for two years.
