An Endorectal Balloon To Support All Your Prostate Radiation Therapy Sessions
Expected benefits of Endorectal Balloon (ERB) use during prostate radiation therapy as discussed in scientific literature:
- ERB have been shown to significantly reduce intra-fraction motion (Article references: 1, 4, 5, 7, 9)
- ERB has significant rectal sparing effect helping to limit rectal wall volume and reduce acute and late ano-rectal toxicity (Article references: 1, 2, 3, 10, 11, 14)
- The stabilizing effect of ERBs can lead to fewer treatment interruptions due to position corrections (Article references: 5)
- The ERB is well tolerated by patients (Article references: 10, 12, 13, 15)
- Setup of the ERB is typically accomplished in less than 3 minutes adding minimal time to the overall procedure (Article references: 8, 15)
- The ERB is suitable for use with various radiation therapy technologies such as 3D-RT, IMRT, IGRT, SBRT, Proton (Article references: 3, 8, 10, 13)
- The ERB’s size and dimensions make it suitable for a multitude of patient sizes and anatomies (Article references: 6)
