Purpose: We sought to compare changes in patient-reported quality of life (PRQOL) following stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), high dose rate (HDR), and low dose rate (LDR) brachytherapy for prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Sexual ...
Iodine-125 seeds are popular LDR brachytherapy sources for prostate cancer therapy; I-125 seeds of nominal activity of 0.5 mCi are permanently implanted into the prostate, delivering cumulative doses of 30 to 120 Gy to the tumor.Iodine-125 has a half-life of approximately 60 days. Iodine-...
However, HDR brachytherapy dose escalation regimens might be able to achieve higher biologically effective doses of irradiation in comparison to LDR, and hence improved outcomes. This advantage over LDR would be amplified should prostate cancer possess a high sensitivity to dose fractionation (i.e.,...

Objective: Low Dose Rate Brachytherapy (LDR-BT) in localized prostate cancer is available since 15 years in Italy. We realized the first national multicentre and multidisciplinary data collection to evaluate LDR-BT practice, given as monotherapy, and outcome in terms of biochemical failure. Methods:...
Introduction and Objectives To analyze retrospectively the intermediate biochemical results and complications, after 147 cases of localized prostate cancer, treated with prostate brachytherapy using permanent125 I implantation (Low Dose Rate – LDR). Material and Methods Between October 2006 and May 2009,...
HDR Versus LDR SeedsLDR seed brachytherapy is well established as an effective treatment option for low-risk prostate cancer with a favourable toxicity profile. HDR brachytherapy delivering high doses per fraction is andoi:10.1007/978-3-642-36499-0_14Peter Hoskin...
