@oldgreenpaint You gotta watch that AI. Indeed, your summaries make it look like IMRT will be more likely to have long term SE’s - compared to SBRT, for which it characterizes long term SE’s as ‘rarely’…
The bottom line is that either one ‘can’ give short and long term SE’s in different individuals under different circumstances.
Also remember that AI is a compilation of snippets culled from the internet and doesn’t always discriminate when it comes to the fine print.

@heavyphil Oh, for sure I do. (Know limitations of AI) I heavily researched side effects, and just found it easier to link/show the compilation of research rather than lots of individual studies.

Totally agree that WE are all individuals and our reactions are somewhat unpredictable. My urinary discomfort, as I call it, put me in minority of patients, yet here I am.
