Maverick 75: I finished my fifth and final treatment with the Mridian Viewray machine in February. My PSA was 10.2 with 3+4 tumors. I had considered Radiation and prostate removal. In terms of radiation, the margins used with the type of radiation are a big deal . The Mridian Viewray uses 2 mm margins based on a recent randomized trial. The wider, the margins, the more the healthy tissue is impacted. You will find that other forms of radiation use 4-6 mm. I looked at a great number of choices, and would make the same decision again.

Where did you have it done. Was Space Oars used with the treatment.

Looks like you have several months under your belt since the procedure. Mind if I ask of any side effects you experienced and what type of monitoring protocol you are now under?
