... of interstitial radiotherapy in deep-seated brain tumors has been applied in 326 cases as of December 31, 1979 (270 cases using iridium-192 and 56 cases using iodine-125). The use of iodine-125 is now favored since it requires less radiation protection due to its soft 28–35 keV radiation; at the same time...
