Patients’ referral pathways to radiation oncology or the RAVES trial. Percentages adjacent to connector lines represent the proportion of patients who continue from the previous category (box) into the next category. Percentages within categories (boxes) represent the proportion of all study patients, with the exception of “radiation < 6 months” where the denominator^ excludes those referred to RAVES. ^To account for RAVES referrals, the probability of radiation < 6 months is calculated as probability (consultation < 4 months) × probability(radiotherapy < 6 months|not RAVES referral) (= 27% × 63% = 17% for the control group; = 26% × 52% = 14% for the intervention group). months = months after prostatectomy
