A reloading device for brachytherapy of tumors is to be simplified in terms of the replacement of the radiation source at the irradiation site. At least two tubes are provided for receiving a longitudinally displaceable cable at the end of which a radiation source can be applied. The tubes can be connected, via a source replacement device and a shield, to a removable and adjustable distributor, from which lines lead to the tumor. By adjusting the distributor, the respectively desired line can be oriented to the respectively desired tube and in this way the desired radiation source can be introduced preferably step by step into the tumor.
