SEEDs (IsoSeed® I-125) – loose seeds for prostate cancer treatment.
An innovative method of treating cancer
These seeds are intended for the permanent treatment of localized prostate cancer. They are delivered as sterile loose IsoSeeds or loaded in Mick® Magazines with up to 15 seeds and are implanted using needles. It can be implanted in any desired seed spacing distance, thus allowing a geometrically unrestricted seed distribution.
How do SEEDs work?
SEEDs implants emit radiation over a longer period of time, allowing for systematic irradiation of cancer cells. The implant insertion procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia and is minimally invasive. Once placed in the patient’s tissue, SEEDs gradually disintegrate, leading to their natural removal from the body.
