Abstract
Radiotherapy is rarely used for T1 bladder cancer. We discuss the potential reasons for this, the current evidence, and make suggestions for future research.
Patient summary
Despite its success in muscle-invasive disease, radiotherapy is rarely used for non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer. We discuss the current evidence and suggest that, with further research, radiotherapy holds much promise as a bladder-preserving strategy.
