UroToday.com – The most common curative treatments for localized prostate cancer (PC), radical prostatectomy (RP) and radiation therapy (RT), have significant effects on quality of life. Most studies measured quality of life using psychometric instruments. Another approach uses the concept of utility. Utility is a global measure, scaled between 0 (dead) and [...]
