pubmed:abstractText |
Conventional low-dose-rate (LDR) brachytherapy is effective in treating childhood sarcomas, but often not practical (due to the associated radiation hazards) in the young children who require continuous observation and sedation. Fractionated high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR) was used to deliver adequate tumoricidal radiation while preserving bone and organ growth in children.
