Radioactive Transperineal Prostate Seed Implant

Prostate Brachytherapy, also known as a Radioactive Transperineal Prostate Seed Implant is another method of delivering radiation which uses radioactive seeds implanted into the prostate. This form of therapy delivers photon radiation from the “inside-out,” as opposed to Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy or Image Guided Radiation Therapy, otherwise known as: IMRT/IGRT, which delivers radiation from the “outside-in.”
