Iodine-125

¹²⁵I has gained a wide usenfor permanent implants in radiation therapy (18,19). The advantages of this isotope overnradon and ¹⁹⁸Au are its longnhalf-life (59.4 days), which is convenient for storage, and its low photonnenergy, which requires less shielding. However, the dosimetry of ¹²⁵I is much morencomplex than the conventional interstitial sources.

Three ¹²⁵I seed models,ndesignated 6701, 6702, and 6711, have been manufactured,² which are identical in size and encapsulation but differnin the active source design. The earlier model 6701 is now obsolete. Figure 15.3 shows the design of the currentlynused seeds. The encapsulation consists of a 0.05-mm-thick titanium tube weldednat both ends to form a cylindrical capsule of dimensions 4.5 × 0.8 mm. Thenmodel 6702 seed contains ion-exchange resin beads, which are impregnated with ¹²⁵I in the formnof the iodide ion. The model 6711 seed contains a silver wire with the activenmaterial, silver iodide (AgI), adsorbed on its surface.

In the new seedndesign, namely model 6711, the silver wire is readily visible on radiographsnand shows seed position as well as orientation. The model 6702 seed isnradiographically less visible, although the titanium end welds can be seen whennsurrounded by reduced thickness of tissue. ¹²⁵I decays exclusively by electron capture to annexcited state of ¹²⁵Te, whichnspontaneously decays to the ground state with the emission of a 35.5-keV γnphoton. Characteristic x-rays in the range of 27 to 35 keV also are producedndue to the electron capture and internal conversion processes. Titaniumnencapsulation serves to absorb liberated electrons and x-rays with energiesnless than 5 keV. The model 6711 seed emits two additional photons at 22.1 keVnand 25.2 keV energies. These are fluorescent (characteristic) x-rays producednby the interaction of ¹²⁵I photons with the silver wire (20).

Palladium-103

¹⁰³Pd seeds have recentlynbecome available for use in brachytherapy. Their clinical applications arensimilar to those of ¹²⁵I. Having a shorter half-life (17 days) than thatnof ¹²⁵I (59.4 days), ¹⁰³Pd may providena biologic advantage in permanent implants because the dose is delivered at anmuch faster rate (22).

The palladium-103nseed model 200³ consists of a laser-welded titanium tube containing twongraphite pallets plated with ¹⁰³Pd (Fig. 15.5).nA lead marker between the pallets provides radiographic identification.
