ProstaSeed
I-125
PSA
has formed a corporate partnership with UroCor,
Inc. to market UroCor's radioactive I-125 sources
for permanent prostate implantation—ProstaSeed
.
This
partnership brings unique value to our customers
by combining PSA's
expertise in all aspects of the procedure with
UroCor's
extensive experience with prostate disease.
These two companies share an unprecedented commitment
to quality which will benefit both the patients
and their doctors.
ProstaSeed
combines clinically
proven radiological properties with high
visibility on both CT
and Fluoroscopy. While we urge our customers
to evaluate and use the dosimetry data specific
to ProstaSeed,
the fact is that within an experimental error,
there is essentially no difference in dose distribution
between ProstaSeed
and historically widely used and evaluated I-125
source. And there is no need to compromise the
dose uniformity as is necessary with some of the
newer sources on the market, or radiographic visibility
as with others.
Full
TG-43 dosimetry data are available here.
