简要总结

The purpose of this research study is to assess outcomes of treatment for early prostate cancer. Current treatments for early (non-metastatic) cancer may cause long-term impairments in the patients quality of life. In this study we will compare the outcomes of patients treated with two alternative brachytherapy (seed implants) techniques using a series of questionnaires.

详细描述

Participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire about their health prior to treatment, at 1, 3 and 12 months after treatment and then once a year 4 more times.
