Comparative StudyA model of the cost-effectiveness of intensity-modulated radiotherapy in comparison with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy for the treatment of localised prostate cancer.
To determine the cost-effectiveness of intensity-modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) compared with three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) for men with localised prostate cancer from a UK National Health Service perspective. ⋯ If IMRT can be used to prolong survival, it is very cost-effective. Otherwise cost-effectiveness is uncertain.
