Speaking from his own experience, prostate cancer survivor Don Kaltenbach cuts through the confusion and controversies. He tells how he avoided surgery and was successfully treated with radioactive "seed" implants (brachytherapy). Kaltenbach describes the entire range of available treatment options, including state-of-the-art Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT). This newly revised edition of Prostate Cancer: A Survivor's Guide provides the most up-to-date information that may save your life or that of a loved one.
