Zusammenfassung

Ist die Indikation zur Strahlentherapie bei älteren Menschen gegeben, dann kann diese in vielen klinischen Situationen wie bei jüngeren Patienten durchgeführt werden. Hypofraktionierte Strahlentherapieschemata können insbesondere in der palliativen Situation die Gesamtbehandlungszeit verkürzen. Mit der bildgeführten hochkonformalen Strahlentherapie, insbesondere mit der intensitätsmodulierten Radiotherapie (IMRT), kann auch bei großen Zielvolumina die Verträglichkeit durch enge Anpassung des Hochdosisbereichs an das Zielvolumen verbessert werden.

Die Strahlentherapie in der geriatrischen Urologie wird in palliativer oder kurativer Intention eingesetzt.
