## Indications for use
MBI 1-125 Brachytherapy Seeds with apparent activities between 3.7 MBq (0.1 mCi) to 37 MBq (1.0 mCi) are indicated for permanent interstitial treatment of tumors which are unresectable or residual after excision of the primary lesion, localized, slow growing, and exhibit low to moderate radiosensitivity. Intra abdominal, intrathoracic and superficial tumors may be treated with seeds containing apparent activities within this range. Tumors commonly treated are prostate (early stage), pancreas, head, neck, and lung. MBI I-125 Brachytherapy Seeds containing apparent activities greater than 37 MBq (1.0 mCi) are indicated for temporary interstitial treatment of tumors which are unresectable or residual after excision of the primary lesion, localized, and exhibit moderate radiosensitivity. Temporary implants are indicated in breast, brain and eye tumors. MBI I-125 Brachytherapy Seeds are indicated for treatment of residual tumors and recurrent tumors following external radiation therapy, hyperthermia, or chemotherapy or concurrent with these treatment modalities.
