Nasopharyngeal impression technique for fabrication of a radiation carrier
Abstract
A new technique for intracavitary application of Iridium 192 seeds in carcinoma of the nasopharynx is described. This technique allows for accurate construction of a nasopharyngeal carrier that permits the radiotherapist to deliver an adequate dose of irradiation to the nasopharynx.
