Interstitial radiotherapy of the base of the tongue. Improved non-looping afterloading technique.

Abstract
P6modification of the non-looping afterloading interstitial technique for tongue-cancer therapy is described. The subsequent risk of tearing or breaking of the tubes, resulting in radioactive sources left as foreign bodies in soft tissues, is reduced. In addition, evaluation of implant position is simplified by the use of radioopaque tubes.
