제목 Surface Modification of Metallic Brachytherapy Seed for Prevention of Migration
초록 Brachytherapy is widely known as an internal radiotherapy, where a metallic seed containing a radiation source is implanted in the tumor. However, the seed can easily migrate, often resulting in uncontrolled delivery of an exact irradiation dose to the target tissue. To resolve this, we coated the seed with polydopamine as bio-adhesive material. The in vitro experiment revealed that the seed after coating showed better adherence to the tissue than the intact metallic seed.
