Comparison of post-implant dosimetrics between intraoperatively built custom-linked seeds and loose seeds by sector analysis at 24 hours and 1 month for localized prostate cancer.

Abstract：

Purpose:To compare post-implant dosimetrics between intraoperatively built custom-linked (IBCL) seeds and loose seeds (LS) at 24 hours and 1 month by sector analysis, and to evaluate the effect of IBCL seeds with regard to change in dosimetric parameters, in patients with prostate cancer treated with brachytherapy. Material and methods:Consecutive patients treated for localized prostate cancer who received definitive brachytherapy between March 2013 and October 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Prostate V100 (PV100), prostate D90 (PD90), prostate V150 (PV150), urethral D30 (UD30), urethral V150 (UV150), and rectal V100 (RV100) were assessed. Results:Thirty-two patients were treated with LS and 32 patients were treated with IBCL seeds. The median follow-up time was 49.9 months in the LS group and 27.1 months in the IBCL group. PV150, UV150, and UD30 at 24 hours and UD30 at 1 month showed significant difference (F-test), and standard deviation (SD) tended to be lower in the IBCL group. Analysis of change in the variables revealed significance for ΔPV100 and ΔPD90 (F-test, p = 0.014 and < 0.001, respectively), and ΔPV150 and ΔUD30 showed marginal significance (p = 0.084 and 0.097, respectively). PV150, UV150, and UD30 at 24 hours and 1 month were significantly lower in the IBCL group, and there was no significant difference in PV100, PD90, and RV100 compared with the LS group (t-test). The homogeneity index (HI) was significantly higher in the IBCL group (p < 0.001). Conclusions:In this retrospective single institutional study, there was a decrease in the SD of the dosimetric parameters in the IBCL group, and it was statistically significant in change in the variables between 24 hours and 1 month (F-test). The use of IBCL seeds significantly decreased PV150, UV150, and UD30, and significantly improved HI, without lowering PD90 or PD100.
