"Brachytherapy" or "contact radiotherapy" is one of the directions of radiation therapy, which means placing the radioactive source as close as possible to the tumor with the appropriate equipment- "Applicator". Brachytherapy is widely used in the world as a highly effective method of treatment. The advantage of this technology is that by delivering the radioactive source directly to the targets of cancerous area, we are able to radiate a high dose of the tumor and at the same time protect the surrounding healthy tissues as much as possible. Technological advances have led to the fact that brachytherapy is now widely used to treat malignant tumors of the skin, female genitals, thorax, breast, head, neck, esophagus and prostate gland.
