Moreover, inter-fraction seed migration can compromise the accuracy of using implanted fiducials as surrogates [21]. On the other hand, IR markers or surface detection represent non invasive techniq...The use of linked seeds eliminates lung embolization following permanent seed implantation for ...

In the treatment group, a 125I seed (29.6 MBq) was implanted into center of the breast tumor. After the injection, the volume of the tumor was recorded daily for 21 days, and the rate of tumor growth inhibition was calculated. On day 21, theperipheral WBC count was determined and then...
Brachytherapy is typically an outpatient procedure where tiny radioactive "seeds" are implanted in the prostate to eradicate the cancer right where it has grown. Brachytherapy has a long and proven track record with data demonstrating it ... PF Orio,KA Crouse,PL Nguyen,... 被引量: 0发表: ...
These cesium-131 seeds withstand multiple autoclaving without leakage, do not cause tissue irritation, can be implanted through the same 17-gauge needles as radon-222 and gold-198 seeds, and can be mass-produced.Spectral analyses of seeds made from the initial processing of irradiated barium ...
Thermal seeds were implanted in the left lobe of the prostates in four dogs; the right lobe was a control to evaluate undesired heating outside the seed array. Linear-array thermometry probes were placed in both lobes, and the induction field for heating the implants was activated for 1 hour...
In the PI group, the number of implanted seeds was associated with the seed migration incidence. Neither the PI nor the PI + EBRT group showed any difference in the volume of the prostate receiving 100 % of the prescribed dose (V100 [%]) or the minimal dose received by 90 % of ...
