摘要
We describe a procedure for intraoperative treatment planning for seed implantation. One hundred seven treatment plans have been analyzed at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and affiliated hospitals. The average time for the intraoperative procedure was 1.74 hours. No significant difference in dose coverage to the prostate or normal tissues was evident. UROLOGY 56: 492-495, 2000. (C) 2000, Elsevier Science Inc.
