Frequency of SpaceOar Implantation

Just wondering if most practices utilize hydrogel placement before radiation or has it not become the standard yet?

  1. Hi . I can't speak to what percentage of practices use SpaceOar, but I wouldn't stick with one that didn't use it. It is considered "established" by many insurers, which helps. It would be a good question as to why a doctor didn't want to use it for prostate radiation. Best, Richard (Team Member)
