Abstract

Cs-131 is a radioisotope with a half-life of 9.7 days that is being increasingly used for prostate brachytherapy (PB). Due to its shorter half-life than other radioisotopes, including I-125 and Pd-103, Cs-131 may be associated with a shorter duration of irritative urinary symptoms. The outcome data with this isotope is still maturing. We present the updated, intermediate-term outcome of patients treated with Cs-131 PB monotherapy.
