Brief Summary: RATIONALE Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells Multiple CT scans may improve the accuracy of radiation therapy for prostate cancer

PURPOSE Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of multiple CT scans in guiding the treatment of patients who have prostate cancer and are undergoing radiation therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the accuracy of radiotherapy delivery using multiple CT scans to guide patient positioning vs the standard portal image guided procedure in patients with prostate cancer undergoing external beam radiotherapy
Determine the reduction in the proportion of patients with large target positioning errors using the CT-guided procedure
Determine organ motion and setup errors over the course of radiotherapy in order to develop efficient clinical intervention strategies in these patients

OUTLINE Patients undergo radiotherapy over 9 weeks Patients undergo a CT scan immediately prior to receiving radiotherapy on treatment days 3-8 and then weekly thereafter On 3 different days patients also undergo CT scan immediately after radiotherapy If the CT scans indicate a correction that exceeds the action level currently in effect then beginning with the next treatment the patients position with respect to the radiation field is adjusted

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 25 patients will be accrued for this study within 2 years
