An interstitial brachytherapy apparatus and method for delivering and monitoring radioactive emissions delivered to tissue surrounding a resected tissue cavity. The brachytherapy device including a catheter body member having a proximal end, a distal end, and an outer spatial volume disposed proximate to the distal end of the body member. A radiation source is disposed in the outer spatial volume and a treatment feedback sensor is provided on the device. In use, the treatment feedback sensor can measure the radiation dose delivered from the radiation source.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de curiethérapie interstitielle et un procédé permettant d'administrer et de contrôler des émissions radioactives administrées à un tissu entourant une cavité tissulaire réséquée. Le dispositif de curiethérapie comprend un élément principal (cathéter) présentant une extrémité proximale, une extrémité distale et un volume spatial extérieur disposé à proximité de l'extrémité distale de l'élément principal. Une source de rayonnement est disposée dans le volume spatial extérieur et un capteur de rétroaction de traitement est installé sur le dispositif. Dans la pratique, le capteur de rétroaction de traitement peut mesurer la dose de rayonnements diffusée par la source de rayonnement.
