Dosimetric Analysis for a Modern 131 Cs Brachytherapy Seed
Conventional LDR brachytherapy seeds rely on internal radiopaque markers that were incorporated to enhance radiographic visibility. With widespread adoption of modern 3D imaging modalities such as CT, the marker presence degrades seed localization and tissue...
