The placement of the hydrogel device requires a physician or physician directed healthcare professional, and is performed as a separate procedure outside of brachytherapy applicator insertion, computed tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging exam, radiation treatment planning and radiation treatment delivery. This device is not intended to be inserted into the uterine cavity or rectum. This device is intended to be in place temporarily and removed after less than 24 hours.
