Background: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men, and radiotherapy (RT) is one of the main treatment options. Although effective, RT can cause toxic side effects. The accurate prediction of dosimetric parameters, enhanced by advanced technologies and AI-based predictive models, is crucial to optimize treatments and reduce toxicity risks. This study aims to explore current methodologies for predictive dosimetric parameters associated with RT toxicity in PCa patients, analyzing both traditional techniques and recent innovations. Methods: A systematic review was conducted using the PubMed, Scopus, and Medline databases to identify dosimetric predictive parameters for RT in prostate cancer. Studies published from 1987 to April 2024 were included, focusing on predictive models, dosimetric data, and AI techniques. Data extraction covered study details, methodology, predictive models, and results, with an emphasis on identifying trends and gaps in the research. Results: After removing duplicate manuscripts, 354 articles were identified from three databases, with 49 shortlisted for in-depth analysis. Of these, 27 met the inclusion criteria. Most studies utilized logistic regression models to analyze correlations between dosimetric parameters and toxicity, with the accuracy assessed by the area under the curve (AUC). The dosimetric parameter studies included Vdose, Dmax, and Dmean for the rectum, anal canal, bowel, and bladder. The evaluated toxicities were genitourinary, hematological, and gastrointestinal. Conclusions: Understanding dosimetric parameters, such as DVH, Dmax, and Dmean, is crucial for optimizing RT and predicting toxicity. Enhanced predictive accuracy improves treatment effectiveness and reduces side effects, ultimately improving patients’ quality of life. Emerging artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies offer the potential to further refine RT in PCa by analyzing complex data, and enabling more personalized treatment approaches.
