Part textbook and part handbook, this essential volume is the latest word on prostate brachytherapy, which has become the most popular form of treatment for prostate cancer in the USA. With its use in the UK rapidly increasing, this book is required reading for any cancer specialist. The development of prostate brachytherapy, using tiny radioactive seeds implanted into the prostate gland, offers a curative day case treatment for patients with a much improved side-effect profile.
