Purpose We investigated the difference between measured and manufacturer's nominal source strength in a large sample of a single model
of 125I seeds. Physical characteristics of single seed measurement by the well-type ionization chamber were also investigated to
provide dosimetric data.
Materials and methods A well-type ionization chamber with a single seed holder was used to measure source strength of all 1935 125I seeds implanted in the initial 28 patients in our hospital. Physical characteristics including linearity of readings for
different integral time intervals, reproducibility, isotropy, and axial positional sensitivity were assessed. To calculate
the source strength, the integral charge during 30 s was measured and converted to air kerma strength. The nominal activity
stated by the manufacturer was compared with the measured value.
Results Linearity, reproducibility, and isotropy of the well-type ionization chamber were within 0.2%. Measured source strength was
on average 2.1% (range −7.6% to +7.2%), lower than the nominal value. Standard deviation of all measured seeds was 2.0%. The
maximum difference between the measured and the manufacturer's nominal source strength in each patient was −3.7%. The standard
deviation averaged 1.6%.
Conclusion The nominal source strength of the 125I seeds agreed well with the measured value. Our study can be helpful as guidance for individual 125I seed source strength measurement. 相似文献

PurposeThe available data demonstrating that superiority of LDR brachytherapy (LDR-BT) boost in high-risk prostate cancer patients under represents patients with extracapsular extension (T3a) and/or seminal vesicle invasion (T3b) have been limited. We report long-term clinical outcomes data for patients with cT3a/b disease receiving LDR-BT.Methods and MaterialsNinety-nine men (median age: 69.4 years) with cT3a/bN0M0 high-risk prostate adenocarcinoma received definitive LDR-BT or LDR-BT boost after external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) at a single institution between 1998 and 2007. About 86% of patients received androgen deprivation therapy. Freedom from biochemical failure (FFBF), prostate cancer–specific survival (PCSS), and overall survival (OS) was calculated using the Kaplan–Meier method with the Phoenix definition used as definition of failure. Cox regression analysis was used to compare outcomes between clinical stage, initial PSA, Gleason Score, and percent core positive rate.ResultsWith a median followup of 7 years, 7-year rate of FFBF, PCSS, and OS for the entire cohort was 65.2% (±5.6%), 90.1% (±3.6%), and 77.9% (±4.7%), respectively. LDR-BT boost patients achieved a 7-year FFBF rate of 73.5 (±6.5%). No significant difference in outcomes was present between T3a or T3b disease, Gleason score, iPSA stratification and percent core positive rates.ConclusionsLDR-BT, primarily as a boost in conjunction with ADT and EBRT, is not only feasible, but also highly effective in men with cT3a and cT3b high-risk prostate cancer resulting in excellent biochemical control and survival outcomes. LDR-BT boost implantation of patients should be strongly considered for cT3 patients given the merits of trimodality care. 相似文献

Purpose We investigated a subtraction-based reprojection approach to reduce CT metal artifacts due to I-125 seeds and evaluated the
clinical implications in postimplant dosimetry for prostate permanent implant brachytherapy.
Materials and Methods The raw projection data were used to reduce metal artifacts due to I-125 seeds. CT images of the metal parts only were separated
from the original CT images by setting the threshold for pixel value to that of the I-125 seeds. Using these images, sinograms
of CT images with and without seeds were obtained by inverse Radon transform (iRT), and the sinogram of the metal image was
subtracted from that of the original image. Finally, the image was reconstructed using the sinogram by Radon transform (RT).
This technique was applied to a prostate phantom and to a patient undergoing prostate permanent implant brachytherapy.
Results Metal artifacts from I-125 seeds were reduced in both the phantom and patient studies. This technique decreased the density
of the inner region of seeds but enhanced the density of the seed edge, thereby facilitating the identification of seed number,
orientation, and location.
Conclusion This method reduces metal artifacts from I-125 seeds, and has potential for decreasing the time required for and improving
the accuracy of postimplant dosimetry.

Purpose: The study consisted of two treatment arms comparing the effects of CLDR (continuous low dose rate) and PDR (pulsed dose rate) brachytherapy on cell cycle progression in a radioresistant rat prostate tumour model.Materials and methods: Interstitial PDR and CLDR brachytherapy (both 192-Ir, 0.75 Gy/h) were administered to Dunning prostate R3327-AT1 carcinomas transplanted subcutaneously into the thigh of Copenhagen rats. Increasing doses of up to 20 as well as up to 40 Gy were applied. Cell cycle distributions of the aneuploid tumour cell subpopulations were determined at 4 h (3 Gy), 24 h (18 Gy), 48 h (20 and 36 Gy), as well as during the subsequent redistribution period (20 and 40 Gy) at 72, 96, and 120 h. Tumours either implemented with an empty tubing system (n = 5) or under undisturbed growth (n = 5) served as controls. Three animals were irradiated per time point and exposure condition. At least two flow cytometrical analyses were carried out per animal.Results: The aneuploid cells possessed a constant DNA-Index of 1.9 ± 0.06. In contrast to sham-treated controls, the aneuploid cell fraction with G2/M DNA content was significantly increased (p < 0.05) after initiation of both, CLDR and PDR brachytherapy. However, CLDR resulted in an earlier accumulation of tumour cells in G2/M (24 h: 28% CLDR vs. 19% PDR, p < 0.05) with a concomitant reduction of cells in G1, whereas PDR yielded delayed, but then more pronounced cell cycle changes, particularly expressed during the redistribution period after both 20 and 40 Gy.Conclusion: CLDR and PDR brachytherapy showed differential effects on cell cycle progression. The induction of a significantly earlier but also less persistent G2/M cell cycle arrest after CLDR compared to PDR brachytherapy implies that a substantially higher fraction of tumour cells are irradiated in G2/M after CLDR. 相似文献

PurposeTo compare quality of life (QoL) after brachytherapy with one of the three approved radioactive isotopes.Methods and MaterialsPatients with mostly favorable intermediate-risk prostate cancer were treated on this prospective phase II trial with brachytherapy as monotherapy, without hormonal therapy. QoL was recorded at baseline and each follow-up by using the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite instrument. The minimal clinically important difference was defined as half the standard deviation of the baseline score for each domain. Mixed effect models were used to compare the different isotopes, and time-driven activity-based costing was used to compute costs.ResultsFrom 2006 to 2013, 300 patients were treated with iodine-125 (I-125, n = 98, prescribed dose [PD] = 145 Gy), palladium-103 (Pd-103, n = 102, PD = 125 Gy), or cesium-131 (Cs-131, n = 100, PD = 115 Gy). Median age was 64.9 years. Median follow-up time was 5.1 years for the entire cohort, and 7.1, 4.8 and 3.3 years for I-125, Pd-103, and Cs-131 groups, respectively. All three isotope groups showed an initial drop in QoL at first follow-up, which gradually improved over the first 2 years for urinary and bowel domains. QoL profiles were similar between I-125 and Pd-103, whereas Cs-131 showed a statistically significant decrease in QoL regarding bowel and sexual function at 12 months compared with Pd-103. However, these differences did not reach the minimal clinically important difference. Compared with I-125, the use of Pd-103 or Cs-131 resulted in cost increases of 18% and 34% respectively.ConclusionsThe three different isotopes produced a similar QoL profile. Statistically significant differences favored Pd-103/I-125 over Cs-131 for bowel and sexual QoL, but this did not reach clinical significance. 相似文献

A newly designed encapsulated 125I source has been introduced (Model LS-1 BrachySeedTM manufactured by DRAXIMAGE Inc.) for interstitial brachytherapy . In this source 125I radionuclide is contained in two ceramic beads positioned at each end of a titanium capsule. The source contains a rod of Pt–Ir, which serves as a radiographic marker for source localization in the patient. Principle photon emissions are 27.4 and 31.0 keV X-rays and a 35.5 keV gamma-ray. The 22.2 and 25.5 keV silver X-rays produced by fluorescence of the silver dopant in the ceramic bead radioisotope carriers, are also emitted. In this work, the dosimetric characteristics of the 125I source were measured with micro LiF TLD chips and dosimetry parameters were characterized based upon the American Association of Physicists in Medicine, Task Group, No. 43 formalism. The corrected 1999 National Institute of Standards and Technology standard for low energy interstitial brachytherapy sources was used to specify the air kerma strength of the sources used in this study. The dose rate constant of the sources was determined to be 1.02±0.07 cGyh−1 U−1. The radial dose function was measured and was found to be similar to that of the silver-based model 6711 125I source. However, the anisotropy function of the Model LS-1 BrachySeedTM source is considerably better than that of model 6711 125I source, especially on the points along and close to the longitudinal axis of the source. The BrachySeedTM model LS-1 provides more isotropic angular dose distribution in tissue than model 6711 125I source. The anisotropy constant for the model LS-1 source was determined to be 1.006, which is considerably better than the value of 0.93 for the model 6711 source. 相似文献

Purpose
To determine patients’ self-reported experiences of outpatient high-dose-rate prostate brachytherapy boost, and compare with previous cohort treated as inpatients.Methods and Materials
Using the Prostate Brachytherapy Questionnaire, we previously examined patients’ subjective experience of the brachytherapy procedure when it involved one implant and hospitalization with the template in situ for 2 days (Group 1). The protocol was subsequently changed to two implants, 2 weeks apart as outpatients. Fifty-eight patients treated with the new protocol (Group 2) completed the same questionnaire. We compared the self-reported experiences between Groups 1 and 2 and also between the first and second implant for those in Group 2. Our hypothesis was that the worst rated issues in Group 1 might be reduced with the new approach.Results
Group 2 patients were less troubled overall by the procedure (mean scores 2.3 vs. 3.2, p = 0.0293). Specifically, they were less troubled by “discomfort” (2.8 vs. 3.8, p = 0.0254); “being stuck in bed” (1.7 vs. 4.2 p < 0.0001); “feeling helpless” (1.3 vs. 2.8, p = 0.0009); “fear of opening my bowels” (2.1 vs. 3.3, p = 0.0055); and “fear of coping with the implant” (1.3 vs. 2.5, p = 0.0004). There was no significant increase in “thought of implant” or “fear of implant” before the second implant. However, more patients rated worse than expected “fear of passing urine” during the second implant.Conclusions
Patients rated high-dose-rate brachytherapy less troublesome when delivered as outpatient with two implants, 2 weeks apart than as inpatient over 3 days, despite the additional invasive procedure and anesthesia. 相似文献20.
