Re-implantation after insufficient primary 125-i permanent prostate brachytherapy
INTRODUCTION We describe five patients receiving a re-implantation (RI) after post-operative dosimetry of the primary 125-I permanent prostate brachytherapy (BT) for prostate cancer revealed an insufficient dose coverage. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five out of 222 consecutive patients treated (from March, 2001 to August, 2012) with 125-I BT, received a RI after dosimetric verification by CT and MR...

متن کاملSecond primary cancers occurring after I-125 brachytherapy as monotherapy for early prostate cancer.

Limited data are available as it has been a routine treatment option for less than 20 years. This study identified cases of SPC in patients who underwent I-125 prostate brach...
متن کاملBenefits of a dual sagittal crystal transducer for ultrasound imaging during I-125 seed implantation for permanent prostate brachytherapy
PURPOSE To investigate whether a longer sagittal view and less movement using a dual sagittal crystal probe (DSCP) for trans rectal ultra sound (TRUS) allow for more accurate online-planning in I-125 permanent implant brachytherapy of the prostate, compared to a single sagittal crystal probe (SSCP). MATERIAL AND METHODS Between March 2008 and March 2010, 50 patients with prostate cancer were ...
