The team at South Cape Urology consist of a urologist, radiation oncologist and a physicist who are skilled in brachytherapy. South Cape Urology is an international accredited brachytherapy unit.
Brachytherapy is a treatment in curing prostatic cancer. South Cape Urology uses the latest technology, software and techniques to ensure an accurate and safe implant as possible to give the patient the best possible chance of complete cure.
A PSA -Prostate Specific Antigen – test is an important diagnostic tool for detecting a chemical which could signify the presence of prostate cancer, and patients suited for Brachytherapy are those where there is a low chance of spread of cancer cells outside the prostate gland.
Brachytherapy is one of the most common treatment for localized prostatic cancer, and for good reason -
- only one night necessary in hospital
- patient leaves hospital with no catheter
- no blood transfusions
- risk of erectile dysfunction is lower than that with surgery
- likelihood of urine incontinence lower than after surgery
