Purpose/Objective:
The purpose of this study was to examine whether the total BED achieved by low dose rate brachytherapy monotherapy (LDRM) or combined treatment with low dose rate brachytherapy and external beam radiotherapy (LDREBRT) result in similar urinary morbidity as quantified by the American Urological Association Symptom Score (AUASS).
