Prostate Volume Changes Following Prostate Brachytherapy With Iodine-125 Seeds

September 16, 2020 updated by: Hani Ashamalla, MD, New York Presbyterian Brooklyn Methodist Hospital

An Observational Study to Evaluate the Changes in Prostate Volume Over Time With The Use of Transrectal Ultrasound and Computed Tomography Following Permanent Prostate Brachytherapy With Iodine-125 Seeds.

The size of the prostate changes due to insertion of the radioactive seeds. We will measure the prostate size, before and after the procedure.
