Abstract

A method of permanently implanting colloidal P32 by infusional brachytherapy has been reproduced in the clinic as previously reported ( 1 Order S.E. Siegel J.A. Principato R. et al. Selective tumor irradiation by infusional brachytherapy in nonresectable pancreatic cancer A Phase I study. Int. J. Radiat. Oncol. Biol. Phys. 1996; 36: 1117-1125 Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (37) Google Scholar ). Recently the use of macroaggregated albumin before infusing colloidal P32 has been challenged in animal experiments ( 2 Lee I. Wallner P.E.
