Interesting. In my case, the bladder was supposed to be as empty as possible. No food or drink the morning of the treatment. Doesn't having the bladder full make it more of a target for stray rays?

They told me that the pee in the bladder kept the back end protected. I’m guessing radiation doesn’t pass through pee very well.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
