What is Brachytherapy Role in Radiotherapy?

Brachytherapy, also known as internal radiation therapy, involves placing a radioactive source directly into or near the tumor site. This approach allows for precise delivery of Radiotherapywhile minimizing exposure to healthy tissues. Brachytherapy can be administered using two main techniques: permanent and temporary. In permanent brachytherapy, small radioactive seeds or sources are permanently implanted in the tumor and gradually release radiation over time. Temporary brachytherapy involves inserting a radioactive source for a specific duration and then removing it. This technique is commonly used for treating prostate, cervical, and breast cancers, as well as certain head and neck cancers.
