Physics of HDR Brachytherapy for Urologists

Firas Mourtada, MSE, PhD, DABR, discusses the physics of high-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy. Dr. Mourtada enumerates prostate cancer treatment options before identifying HDR brachytherapy as the ultimate approach for dose escalation, asserting that with image guidance, HDR for prostate can be implemented safely and result in an increase in biochemical disease-free survival.
