Plain Language Summary
Simplified for easier understanding
This study is investigating whether having a full or empty bladder during pelvic radiation therapy makes a difference in outcomes and side effects for people being treated for pelvic cancers — including bladder, bowel, or gynecologic cancers. There is currently no agreed-upon standard, so this trial aims to provide clear guidance.

- You agree to follow the study's bladder preparation instructions
