摘要： A brachytherapy device for the provision of brachytherapy is disclosed. The brachytherapy device has at least one source lumen located outside a movable surface of the device. The source lumen may be secured to the movable outer surface in a manner whereby relative movement of the source lumen relative to the movable outer surface is permitted. The brachytherapy device is inserted into a body cavity. After insertion, the movable surface is moved to position the at least one source lumen closer to the tissue boundary of the cavity. One or more sources of radiation are then placed within the at least one source lumen to provide a customizable treatment. Also disclosed are methods for providing brachytherapy via body cavities.

摘要翻译： 公开了一种用于提供近距离放射治疗的近距离放射治疗装置。 近程放射治疗装置具有位于装置的可移动表面外部的至少一个源腔。 源腔可以以允许源腔相对于可移动外表面的相对运动的方式固定到可移动外表面。 近距离放射治疗装置插入体腔。 在插入之后，可移动表面被移动以使至少一个源管腔更靠近腔的组织边界。 然后将一个或多个辐射源放置在至少一个源腔内以提供可定制的治疗。 还公开了通过体腔提供近距离放射治疗的方法。
