Neil K. Taunk, MD, MS, Radiation Oncologist and Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, demonstrates placement of transperineal fiducial markers and SpaceOAR Hydrogel placement for prostate cancer radiotherapy. Fiducial makers are used to guide prostate cancer radiotherapy. SpaceOAR hydrogel may decrease the amount of rectum exposed to prostate radiotherapy. The transperineal approach is used to reduce the risk of infection substantially.
