Interesting facts about Drake the cat's treatment. Note radiogel gives 8x the radiation dose possible from external beam radiation.

"For Drake, that meant treatment with a radiation dose that was about eight-times greater than the standard external beam radiation dose. Injecting the solution at multiple points in Drake’s tumor took Veterinarian Michelle Meyer about 25 minutes. After the cat recovered from anesthesia and was checked to make sure there was no radioactive contamination, he was released the same day, she said."

But it is too expensive
"The treatment now offered commercially for cats and dogs is expensive. It compares with the $8,000 to $12,000 cost of treating an animal with external beam radiation."

Reality check on human testing
"Pre-clinical testing for people already has begun with the work at the University of Missouri.
