SummaryHigh-dose rate (HDR) temporary prostate brachytherapy is a technique ofdelivering a high-intensity radiation source directly to the prostate gland for thetreatment of prostate cancer. The radiation source is inserted through hollowcatheters or needles inserted precisely into several areas o...
High-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy as monotherapy for prostate cancer has theoretical advantages in both aspects of radiation physics and biology compared to other radiotherapy modalities. The three-dimensional and four-dimensional dose distribution of HDR brachytherapy is superb, and HDR monotherapy maxi...

Conformal high dose rate brachytherapy (HDR) is a successful method for delivering higher dose of radiation to the prostate when com- pared to EBRT alone, with some potential addi- tional advantages over normal tissues sparing and on reducing miss dose to the prostate [9]. We hypothesized that...

PURPOSE: To present a clinical procedure that readjusts catheters to its planned positions based on pretreatment computed tomography (CT) for patients undergoing high-dose-rate (HDR) prostate brachytherapy, and evaluate the magnitude and dosimetric impact of the adjustments.METHODS AND MATERIALS: Patient...
High-dose-rate brachytherapy is intensity-modulated BT. Precise irradiation of the target is characteristic of HDR-BT. Geographic miss due to prostate or patient motion is not a problem with HDR-BT as long as the positions of the flexiguide catheters are monitored by physical measurement and im...
