Does intracavitary radiation make people radioactive?
No, intracavitary radiation does not make people radioactive. The radioactive source used for treatment is placed inside the body temporarily, and once the treatment is completed, the source is removed. The patient does not become radioactive from this procedure.
Does intracavitary radiation use cesium?
Yes, intracavitary radiation can use cesium-137 as a radioactive source. cesium-137 is a common isotope used in brachytherapy for treating certain types of cancers.
What is intracavitary radiation also called?
Internal radiation therapy
Does intracavitary radiation use phosphorus?
Yes
Does intracavitary radiation use iridium?
Yes, intracavitary radiation therapy can use iridium-192 sources. Iridium-192 is a common radioactive isotope used in brachytherapy for treating various cancers, including gynecological and prostate cancers. The radioactive source is placed inside or near the tumor to deliver targeted radiation treatment.

What is the CPT code for radioactive needles intracavitary of uterus?
The CPT code for the placement of radioactive needles intracavitary in the uterus is typically 77770. This code is used for the administration of brachytherapy, specifically when referring to the insertion of radioactive sources into a body cavity for therapeutic purposes. Always check the latest coding guidelines or consult with a coding specialist for the most accurate and updated information.
