Drs. Showalter, Pizzi and Gomella's Radiation Therapy and Prostate Cancer Studies Featured in Urology Times

Researchers at Jefferson found during a study that receiving radiation therapy immediately after a radical prostatectomy is a cost-effective treatment for prostate cancer patients when compared with waiting and acting on elevated prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels.

Their findings are featured in the Urology Times. Drs. Timothy Showalter, Laura Pizzi and Leonard Gomella are quoted in the article.
