Brachytherapy of liver tumours is a relatively new technique which has proven its value and can be found via the link: 28 Primary and secondary liver malignancies (cld.bz).

  • ‘Penis cancer’, written by Juanita Crook and Cyrus Chargari.

Penis cancer is a rare malignancy that at an early stage can be well treated with conservative management with brachytherapy. This chapter is updated from the first edition, 22 Penis cancer (cld.bz).
