A new method is described for small iridium-192 wire implants upon the skin of the face. The method is a miniaturisation of a technique described previously (Paine, 1972), and has the advantage that is results in less scarring and therefore a better cosmetic end-result than in the case when the more conventional wide-bore tubing is employed. This new method produces similar clinical results in terms of tumour cure to other methods, and a degree of after-loading helps in radiation protection.
本文描述了一种用于在面部皮肤植入小铱-192线的新方法。该方法是对先前描述的技术(佩恩,1972年)的小型化,其优点是与采用更传统的宽孔导管相比,它产生的疤痕更少,因此美容效果更好。就肿瘤治愈而言,这种新方法与其他方法产生相似的临床结果,并且一定程度的后装有助于辐射防护。
