Head‐up tilt does not enhance prostate tumor perfusion or oxygenation in young rats

Head‐up tilt does not enhance prostate tumor perfusion or oxygenation in young rats

Abstract Solid tumors contain hypoxic regions that contribute to anticancer therapy resistance. Thus, mitigating tumor hypoxia may enhance the efficacy of radiation therapy which is commonly utilized for patients with prostate cancer. Increasing perfusion pressure in the prostate with head‐up tilt (...
