LDR<unk>  (seed or polymer source implantation) is recommended as a treatment for patients whose cancer is at an early stage (cancer stages T1 to T2), and which has not spread beyond the<unk>  (localised disease). Doctors use a combination of factors such as cancer stage and grade, PSA level, Gleason score and urine flow/bladder emptying tests to help them decide if a patient is suitable for LDR<unk> . Patients should ask their doctors about the results of these different tests and how they influence the type of treatment they may be offered. LDR<unk>  in combination with external beam radiotherapy may also be recommended for patients with later-stage cancer and higher PSA level and Gleason score.
