Rethinking ADT & Radiation Personalized Prostate Cancer Care with Dr. Nima Aghdam | Insight

This is an Insight Clip from the Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast. In this segment, radiation oncologist Dr. Nima Aghdam explains how androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) truly works when combined with radiation—and why the future of prostate cancer care lies in personalized treatment.
