Brachytherapy seeds are made by sealing radionuclides in metal or other non-degradable material (resin or glass) and surgically implanted into the tumor tissue, showing some efficacy in clinic for solid tumors.However, its application and efficacy is limited due to the side effects caused by seed migration, limited the efficacy because of spatial heterogeneity of the dose distribution, and complicated surgical procedure for implantation and seed removal.
