## BACKGROUND. The pretreatment serum prostate specific antigen level (PSAL) is the most significant predictor of biochemical and local failure in patients treated with definitive radiotherapy. The role of prostate specific antigen (PSA) density (PSAD) relative to PSAL for such patients is controv
Background. The serum kinetics of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) after radiation therapy for prostate cancer are not well characterized, and the potential prognostic significance of serum half-lives and of serum doubling times is unclear. This study was designed to address those issues. Methods. O
