Permanent Seed Implants

Permanent Seed Implants is a brachytherapy technique in which radioactive seeds are permanently embedded within target tissue to deliver localized radiation dose over time, distinguished from temporary implants by the seeds' intended long-term retention and gradual dose dissipation.
