Summary
This study looked at whether a special scan (PET/CT) taken before treatment can predict how well radioactive seed implants will shrink tumors. Researchers reviewed 41 patients with 69 tumors and found that a higher "metabolic tumor volume" on the scan meant a worse response to the seeds. This could help doctors choose the best treatment for each patient.
