The role of image-guided radiotherapy in prostate cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: Image-guided radiotherapy (IGRT) has gradually been widely promoted in clinical procedure. However, there has been no consensus on the effects of IGRT on toxicity and survival, and no clear level 1 evidence has even been promulgated. Methods:

To date, no great interest has been shown in the clinical implementation of recent Image-guided radiation therapy (IGRT) modalities in rectal cancer since only a few studies have been published on this issue. This may be explained by the fact that with current treatment modalities locoregional recurrences are already very low (around 10%).
