Stereotactic Interstitial Brachytherapy for Malignant Brain Tumors
2015Results of recent studies of patients with glioblastoma multiforme show that when these lesions recur after irradiation, they do so most commonly within 2 cm of the original site (Hochberg and Pruitt 1980). Moreover, metastases from malignant gliomas within the central nervous system are uncommon (Erlich and Davis 1978) and systemic metastases are rare

Interstitial Brachytherapy - Definitive and Adjuvant
2019Gynecologic interstitial brachytherapy (ISBT) is the placement of catheters into and surrounding a tumor, with either a high-dose-rate (HDR) and low-dose-rate (LDR) technique. Using an HDR technique, the catheters are afterloaded with radioactive sources, the most common isotope being 192Ir.

Tomographic convolutional dosimetry of interstitial brachytherapy implants
Medical Physics, 1999A method for approximation of the dose distribution generated by an interstitial brachytherapy implant is introduced. The method employs convolution of raw tomographic data, as a measurement of attenuation of CT pencil beams by the metallic substrate and casing of radioactive seeds.

Paris System for Interstitial Brachytherapy
2009The Paris System is a complete dosimetric system which greatly facilitates brachytherapy, using iridium 192 sources at low, pulsed or high dose-rate. The aim of this chapter is to present briefly the part of the system dedicated to interstitial brachytherapy.

Permanent Seed Interstitial Prostate Brachytherapy
2003Permanent implant prostate brachytherapy first gained popularity in the 1970s but subsequently underwent more than a 10-year period of near abandonment. Loss of interest in the technique stemmed from technical limitations of the retropubic approach that often resulted in poor physical distribution of the implanted seeds.

Interstitial Brachytherapy: Radical and Salvage
2018Interstitial brachytherapy (ISBT) is a useful treatment modality for gynecological cancer. Multiple treatment applicators can be implanted in and/or around clinical target volume (CTV); ISBT may achieve a better CTV coverage than an intracavitary brachytherapy and intracavitary/interstitial brachytherapy (ICISBT).
