A new technique of intracavitary brachytherapy for malignant biliary obstruction is presented. The technique involves the use of a high-dose-rate remote afterloading device, which offers all the advantages of conventional brachytherapy with the added benefit that the dose can be delivered in a single treatment over a few minutes. The potential problems associated with conventional brachytherapy are thereby minimized.
介绍了一种用于恶性胆道梗阻的腔内近距离放射治疗新技术。该技术使用高剂量率远程后装装置，它具备传统近距离放射治疗的所有优点，并且还有额外的好处，即剂量可以在几分钟内单次治疗中给予。因此，与传统近距离放射治疗相关的潜在问题被最小化。
