摘要
Brachytherapy is one of the oldest techniques of radiation therapy for prostate cancer. However, its use has been controversial due to mixed results with older implant techniques and the availability of different treatment methods. New methods of brachytherapy based on improved technology and increased understanding of radiobiology hold promise for consistently improved results. This article describe the various methods of prostate brachytherapy and reviews the clinical results for these methods.
