title: [The early development of brachytherapy of the prostate: a study on technique application in the development of urology].
abstract: Within recent years brachytherapy of the prostate has become a treatment of choice. The treatment can be dated back up to the beginning of the twentieth century. It is interesting that the urological routes have never been explored directly by authors of articles and textbooks in the field of radiology and radiooncology.
