I asked asked Bard (from google) what Radiogel is and below is the answer I got!! :) $RDGL

"Radiogel is a hydrogel liquid containing tiny radioactive particles that can be injected directly into a tumor. The hydrogel is a carrier for the radioactive particles, and it gels within the tumor interstitial spaces after injection to keep the radiation sources safely in place. The short-range beta radiation from the radioactive particles localizes the dose within the treatment area so that normal organs and tissues are not adversely affected.

Radiogel is a type of brachytherapy, which is a type of cancer treatment that uses radiation to destroy cancerous tumors. Brachytherapy is different from external beam radiation therapy in that the radiation source is placed inside the body, near the tumor. This allows for a more concentrated dose of radiation to be delivered to the tumor, while minimizing the exposure of surrounding healthy tissues.

Radiogel is currently being investigated for the treatment of a variety of cancers, including prostate cancer, breast cancer, liver cancer, and lung cancer. It is also being investigated for the treatment of cancer in animals.

Here are some of the advantages of using radiogel for cancer treatment:

It is a minimally invasive procedure, as the radiogel is injected directly into the tumor.
It delivers a more concentrated dose of radiation to the tumor, while minimizing the exposure of surrounding healthy tissues.
It can be used to treat tumors that are difficult to reach with external beam radiation therapy.

Radiogel is a promising new cancer treatment modality that has the potential to improve the outcomes for patients with cancer."
