SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 months

Population: ITT

The space between the prostate and the rectum will be determined by Ct in subjects with prostate cancer who underwent radiotherapy and who received the balloon. The degree of increase in this space is directly related to a reduction of isodose level delivered to the rectum, and therefore a reduction in post radiation therapy rectal adverse event sequela.
