Augmented reality in brachytherapy: A narrative review
J Contemp Brachytherapy. 2024 Feb;16(1):57-66. doi: 10.5114/jcb.2024.137779. Epub 2024 Feb 29.ABSTRACTBrachytherapy (BRT) plays a pivotal role in the treatment of tumors, offering precise radiation therapy directly to the affected area. However, this technique demands extensive training and skills development, posing challenges for widespread adoption and ensuring patient safety. This narrative review explored the utilization of augmented reality (AR) in BRT, seeking to summarize existing evidence, discuss key findings, limitations, and quality of research as well as outline future research directions. The review revealed ...

Safety of high-dose-rate brachytherapy in patients with prostate cancer and inflammatory bowel disease: A case series
CONCLUSIONS: HDR brachytherapy appears to be a safe and tolerable treatment modality for patients with prostate cancer and IBD, with minimal acute and late GI and GU toxicity. These findings warrant multi-institutional validation due to small sample size.PMID:38584887 | PMC:PMC10993899 | DOI:10.5114/jcb.2024.135645 (Source: Journal of Contemporary Brachytherapy)
