Image-guided high-dose-rate brachytherapy of malignancies in various inner organs – technique, indications, and perspectives

Abstract: In the last few years, minimally invasive tumor ablation performed by interventional radiologists has gained increasing relevance in oncologic patient care. Limitations of thermal ablation techniques such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA), microwave ablation (MWA), and laser-induced thermotherapy (LITT), including large tumor size, cooling effects of adjacent vessels, and tumor location near thermosensitive structures, have led to the development of image-guided high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy, especially fo… Show more

“…In the present study, the 6-and 12-month LRFS rates were 90 and 64%, respectively. These results were similar to the initial results in German centers, including the Radiology and Nuclear Medicine Clinic (Magdeburg) that have extensive experience in this type of treatment (13,(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)22). In the present study, the 6-and 12-month OS rate was high (97 and 80%, respectively).…”

“…Radiation therapy is primarily administered as stereotactic teleradiotherapy and three-dimensional conformational radiotherapy (7). In previous years, image-guided brachytherapy has become increasingly popular (8,9). This is due to the possibility of administering high radiotherapy doses to the tumor region, while maintaining a low dose in the remaining healthy liver tissue.…”

W analizie wieloczynnikowej wykazano jednakże, że najistotniejszy wpływ na przeżycie całkowite pacjentów miała możliwość powtórzenia zabiegu brachyterapii przezskórnej.…”
