Prospective Evaluation of a Novel Unidirectional Permanent Device for Intraoperative Brachytherapy
This is the first published clinical trial of a novel unidirectional brachytherapy device. CivaSheet proved to be a feasible technique to deliver intraoperative radiation to patients with high-risk pelvic malignancies after surgical resection, and warrants further study and clinical consideration, particularly in settings where other IORT options are not available.
