This statement outlines the Faculty of Radiation Oncology’s position on the provision of advice to men considering curative treatment for localised prostate cancer. It is not designed to be an information brochure, patient decision aid, or to replace information provided to these men. This position statement applies only to men who are approaching a decision around active, potentially curative, treatment and not for those suitable for active surveillance.

The Cancer Nurses Society of Australia Ltd (CNSA) supports the Faculty of Radiation Oncology’s position statement on Informed Decision Making in the Management of Localised Prostate Cancer: A Patient-focused Perspective.
