Abstract
Prostate brachytherapy is an interventional procedure that is highly safe and effective for the treatment of localized prostate cancer. Brachytherapy offers equivalent to superior biochemical outcomes when compared to external beam radiation therapy and radical prostatectomy but offers an attractive toxicity prolife, improved quality of life, and preservation of sexual function when compared to these modalities. Modern prostate brachytherapy has benefitted significantly from the integration of advanced radiologic technologies, which have led to significant advances in the diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer, in the intraoperative imaging and placement of radioactive sources, and in the dosimetric assessment and toxicity management of patients undergoing prostate brachytherapy.
