GU Journal Club | Local Failure, Local Solution: From Whole Gland LDR to Focal HDR


Monday, December 7, 2026

Category: Webinar

Join Us for Our Resident Journal Club: Designed especially for radiation oncology residents — and valuable for all physicians and healthcare providers — this resident-led Journal Club creates a collaborative space for learning, discussion, and practical insight.

Local recurrence after prostate radiation has historically presented a difficult therapeutic challenge, but advances in imaging and brachytherapy are creating new opportunities for curative salvage. This webinar will review the evidence for salvage LDR and HDR brachytherapy, from whole-gland approaches to modern focal strategies. We will discuss patient selection, efficacy, toxicity, and how PSMA PET and MRI are redefining the role of salvage reirradiation.
