• Accurate mapping of
positive MRL nodes
for IMRT has the
potential:
- to reduce toxicity in
normal tissue
- allows higher doses
on the positive nodes

Take home messages
• MRI is the best technique to show the
prostate and its tumor localization and
aggression
• MRI is a superior technique in showing
small nodal and bone metastates
• integration of Rth and MRI still needs a
lot of research but offers great potential
