@cristian_udo @ndesai2005 @DrAndrewLoblaw Absolutely, apologies if previous posts have come across as rude. No mean feat to follow these patients for 10 years. For me, shows lack of long term HDR brachy data in multi-institutional setting. We need to follow your lead and do better!

Congratulations @cristian_udo and co-authors on putting this together. Hard to take too much away given the differences in how toxicity was collected amongst SBRT studies and only 1 brachytherapy trial included from single site. We need more data before making conclusions

Curious about whether #SBRT or #brachy is better treatment for intermediate risk prostate cancer? See @cristian_udo @JAMANetworkOpen article just posted! JAMANetworkOpen.2026;9(2):e260146. doi:10.1001/jamanetworkopen.2026.0146 @DrSpratticus @AmarUKishan @nickva1 @alison_tree

I think we do great #brachy. Here are the facts. Please judge for yourself! Mature program: LDR started in 1998, HDR (2001), Oncentra (2009) RTQA in 100% of cases (<0.5% minor dev'n rate) High volume centre: up to 400 PC patients / yr; 4-5 brachy physicians, dedicated OR ../2

Amazing to see the continued results of the collaboration w/ @AmarUKishan from @UCLA and UH Seidman @RadOncUH and trial groups and brilliant collaborators around the world. Dozens of high impact practice changing studies, and POSEIDON published in @TheLancet today is one more.

@EvanThomas84 @cristian_udo 🤣 your reference is almost wasted on an Australian born in the late 80s. It’s definitely hypothesis generating but as the authors point out in the manuscript there a number of methodological aspects that should be considered before people close the door on brachy here.

@JPoderMedPhys @cristian_udo Hard to take too much away? Seems like this is more one sided than ‘91 Operation Desert Storm. IMO, you can’t get a marginal dose with HDR high enough in one (or two) fractions without nuking urethra and bladder base.

@jaguaranna27 @JoeChangMD IMHO anyone with an IGRT/IMRT capable linac should be cranially radiosurgerizing “non complex” CNS mets; and almost all rural/community centers have such linacs nowadays
