What Is SABR
(Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation)
SABR (Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiation, also known as Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy – SBRT) is an advanced 5-day radiation treatment for Prostate Cancer. For many patients, it is an excellent alternative to conventional radiation therapy, which can take up to 45 sessions.
SABR is a treatment technique that uses precisely targeted, very high dose x-ray beams to destroy small cancers. First developed in the early 2000s as an alternative to surgery for treatment of small lung cancers, it has since been proven to be highly effective and safe in the treatment of a wide variety of cancer types throughout the body, including prostate cancer.
