High dose brachytherapy (real time) in patients with intermediate- or high-risk prostate cancer: technical description and preliminary experience
2005
Introduction
It has been well documented that the outcome of prostate cancer treatment depends on the dose administered. Hence, techniques have been developed that allow high-dose administration without increasing the complications, e.g. external radiotherapy combined with high-dose radiation (HDR) brachytherapy. In this article we analyse the technique and protocol of real-time HDR brachytherapy together with the preliminary results that support its use.
