@monahanirvingjames My feeling on this has always been that where there’s smoke, there’s fire.
If you have a visible lesion in a node, might there not be many many more that have not reached the critical mass necessary to light up?
Since you did ask, personally I would zap the node with SBRT and do full pelvic with IMRT and ADT. Better safe than sorry down the road. Best,
Phil

@heavyphil
This sounds like the treatment I received for pc in the prostate and in two adjacent lymph nodes. The prostate and nodes rec'd full radiation each day w/SBRT and the pelvic region was given a smaller dose.
