Proton Therapy for Prostate Cancer: More Fun Than We Ever Expected - Softcover
According to the American Cancer Society, approximately 190,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer each year, and more than 27,000 men die of the disease yearly. Because of the irreversible and serious side effects of surgery, such as incontinence, impotence, and secondary infection, many men are seeking less invasive treatments like proton therapy to cure their prostate cancer. Unfortunately, most urologists treating these men don't even inform them about proton therapy as a viable treatment option, despite the fact that there's no risk of the above side effects. The authors and contributors to this book want to help people become well versed about the proton therapy option. They were all treated successfully for prostate cancer at the University of Florida Proton Therapy Center in Jacksonville, Florida--and they truly had more fun than they ever expected. In this book, the two male authors and four male contributors chronicle every step of their prostate cancer challenge
