Interstitial radiation therapy of brain tumors requires positioning of the radioactive sources with good precision in order to achieve a sufficient dose in the tumor without too much damage to surrounding tissues. A method for application of 192Ir seeds in brain tumors is described and preliminary results in seven patients reported. The method, which uses CT-guided stereotactic localization and computerized dose planning, is at present fairly complicated. The preliminary results are promising and no serious complications have so far been observed.
