I have an appointment with a CyberKnife facility today and I will go from there. The CyberKife is 5 treatments and their machine tracks prostate movement in real time as you are in a CT scanner from what I have read. % high doses seems way better than 28 for Proton. They both claim to spare healthy tissue but when you read the area targeted it is the whole prostate and 1.5 cm of the seminal vesicles even though my lesion is only 7 mm and on one side. That is one of the questions I have for the doctor today as to why.
