Abstract
Consistently high local tumor control and low complications rates are reported with HDR monotherapy. It provides reproducible high-quality dosimetry, it has an advantage from a radiobiology perspective, and it has a good radiation safety profile. HDR brachytherapy is a safe and effective local treatment modality for prostate cancer.
