Placing Radioactive Sources Into Tissue

Rhode Island rates for HCPCS 77778

Places radioactive sources directly into or beside a tumor through needles or thin tubes, so the radiation acts from inside the tissue over a very short distance. That spares nearby healthy organs compared with beams aimed from outside. This covers the more involved version, where many sources must be positioned and checked.
