Os autores apresentam uma técnica de agulhamento simplificada, pela qual a exposição à radiação da equipe encarregada do paciente está bem abaixo das normas estabelecidas pela “International Commission on Radiological Protection". Por outro lado, salientam as vantagens da utilização do Iridium-192, devido a baixa energia que apresenta.
