Permanent Breast Seed Implant (PBSI)
Patients are pre-planned using Computerized Tomography (CT) simulation. Implant is performed after surgery under light sedation and local freezing (alternatively general anesthesia). Stranded seeds are inserted using a brachytherapy template that is immobilized to the planned target volume using a 'localization' needle. Patients are released the same day and Quality Assurance involves post-implant Computerized Tomography (CT).
