Abstract
Purpose To determine if Live Implant Dosimetry (LIDO) utilizing intraoperative transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is equivalent to postimplant CT dosimetry (either day 0 or day 30) in patients with localized prostate cancer (PC) treated with low dose rate (LDR) prostate seed brachytherapy. Methods and Materials The treated population consisted of 628 men with localized (T1-T2) PC. All d'Amico risk categories (low, intermediate, and high) were...
