Table I.

Corrected margins in centimeters (cm). Prostate margins were obtained for 26 of the 27 patients, nodal margins for 21 of the 27 patients. Excluded patients had mesh import problems. ROI-ROI margins were increased by 0.05 cm and ROI-isodose margins by 0.1 cm, to correct for measurement bias (see text).
