Intraluminal radiation for the local control of bronchogenic carcinoma has recently undergone rapid technological progress. Remote afterloading of high intensity radiation sources into endoscopically placed multiple small catheters with computerized optimization of dosimetry is the state-of-the-art.

Brachytherapy is the preferred radiation treatment modality for various intraocular tumors, most commonly, uveal melanoma. Radioactive sources are placed directly onto or around the tumor with the aid of episcleral plaques, whereby the employed sources exhibit an extremely sharp fall-off of dosage outside the few millimeters around the tumor. With such

There has been a recent resurgence of interest in implementing brachytherapy in the management of nasopharyngeal carcinoma, not only as treatment for recurrent disease, where it has secured a notable role, but also as an elective boost following external beam irradiation in an attempt to improve local control.

Human Fertility, 2016
Fertility is a major part of the global care of patients treated for cancer. A new discipline known as oncofertility has emerged in some countries. Although the relationship between chemotherapy and external radiotherapy and fertility has been studied and reported, there is only scarce data available on brachytherapy.

Interstitial intracranial radiotherapy implants, or brachytherapy, is an adjuvant option for treatment of recurrent high-grade meningiomas after resection. The implants are placed in the resection cavity following tumor resection. The most commonly used isotope is Iodine-125 (I-125).

Gastroenterology Nursing, 1992
Endobronchial brachytherapy is a palliative treatment primarily used for individuals with lung cancer. This article describes the brachytherapy and presents the nurse's role before, during, and after the procedure. Coordination between hospital staff--endoscopy department, pulmonologist, radiation oncologist, and radiology department--is important to ...

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2002
AbstractPatients presenting with in‐stent restenosis have an increased risk of need for repeat intervention. Intracoronary brachytherapy is indicated for these patients to prevent recurrent in‐stent restenosis. Three intravascular brachytherapy systems are currently FDA‐approved for use in patients: one utilizing gamma‐radiation (Cordis) and two using ...

Seminars in Oncology, 2014
Brachytherapy consists of placing radioactive sources within, or directly adjacent to a tumor, and is a means of delivering highly targeted and conformal radiation. While its history dates back to the origins of the field, in recent years brachytherapy treatment paradigms have been evolving considerably.

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1990
In the last several years there has been a renewed interest in interstitial brachytherapy for the treatment of both newly diagnosed and recurrent malignant gliomas and solitary cerebral metastases. A variety of techniques are currently in use for the planning and stereotactic implantation of radioactive isotopes into these tumors.
