Quality assurance through postplan assessment is an integral part of permanent seed prostate implants. The use of MRI-CT fusion for 1-month postimplant dosimetry permits accurate assessment of prostate volume without seed induced artifact and uncertainties of prostate contour inherent to CT assessments. Routine use of MRI-CT fusion reveals significant prostate edema may persist several weeks. This study evaluates the effect of edema, and its subsequent resolution, on dosimetry.
