Percutaneous computed tomography-guided permanent 125I implantation as therapy for pulmonary metastasis.

Surgical resection remains the standard for resectable cases, but CTRISI offers an alternative for selected patients or may be used as a feasible approach in combination with surgical resection for selected patients.
