Seed localization in eye plaque brachytherapy

Medical Physics, 1998
We describe a simple method for localizing seeds in eye plaques used for brachytherapy treatment of intraocular tumors and age‐related macular degeneration. The method is based on obtaining magnified photocopy images of plaques with seeds in place and then using simple geometrical considerations to reconstruct seed coordinates with about 2% accuracy. A

β-Ray brachytherapy with 106Ru plaques for retinoblastoma

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2006
A retrospective analysis of 134 patients who received (106)Ru brachytherapy for retinoblastomas (175 tumors in 140 eyes). Treatment and follow-up were analyzed with special emphasis on tumor control organ, preservation, and late complications.Treated tumors had a mean height and diameter of 3.7+/-1.4 mm and 5.0+/-2.8 disk diameters, respectively.

Episcleral Plaque Brachytherapy

Seminars in Ophthalmology
Episcleral plaque brachytherapy is a treatment method for ocular tumors that involves placing radionuclide sources directly on or around the tumor using an episcleral plaque. This technique offers the advantage of a highly focused radiation dose, minimizing exposure to critical eye structures. Various radionuclides such as I-125, Ru-106, and Pd-103 are
