Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to compare using external beam radiotherapy with intensity modulated beams for fewer days at a higher dose per day to the same type of therapy for more days at a lower dose per day in the treatment of prostate cancer. The safety of these treatments will also be studied and compared.
