Reducing radiation risks to staff for patients with permanently implanted radioactive sources requiring unrelated surgery
Permanent implant of sealed radioactive sources is an effective technique for treating cancer. Typically, the radioactive sources are implanted in and near the disease, depositing radiation absorbed dose locally over several months. There may be instances where these patients must undergo unrelated...
