Brachytherapy, 2021
Accelerated partial breast irradiation with brachytherapy is a treatment method with a very low risk profile. In fact, accelerated partial breast irradiation brachytherapy has been proven in randomized trials to have fewer late side effects than whole-breast irradiation.

Critical Reviews in Oncology/Hematology, 2001
A rapidly and constantly increasing aged population in the western countries poses a wide range of specific problems to oncologists. A different way to face medical issues should be sought for older patients with cancer, looking at the characteristics that are peculiar to the elderly from different points of view.

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).

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

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1995
Historically, amputation was the standard local treatment for soft tissue sarcomas of the extremity. Although this procedure provided excellent local control, the adverse impact of this procedure on quality of life was obvious. In an effort to maximize the functional outcome of sarcoma therapy, various groups initiated studies aimed at doing less ...

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2008
The demand for anaesthesia in brachytherapy is increasing. Patients often present with high-risk factors and multiple comorbidities. To achieve a stable position of the implants, immobility is often mandatory. Duration of brachytherapy varies greatly and may exceed the duration of single-shot regional anaesthesia.

The american brachytherapy society perspective on intravascular brachytherapy
Cardiovascular Radiation Medicine, 1999Recent clinical studies indicate that intravascular brachytherapy (IVB) can reduce the rate of restenosis substantially after angioplasty procedures. However, no clinical guidelines exist for optimal therapy.The members of the IVB Subcommittee of the American Brachytherapy Society (ABS) identified the areas of consensus and controversies in IVB to ...
