Disponível em: http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/27537.http://repositorio.ipen.br/handle/123456789/27537Developing new and innovative treatments for cancer is an urgent matter. The National Institute of Cancer estimates that Brazil will have 576,000 new cases of the disease in 2015. Our research group is developing new radioactive seeds to be use in radiotherapy procedures since the early 2000’s. We present the surface study and research for two of our major projects: iodine-125 seeds for prostate, brain and eye cancer treatment and iridium-192 for eyecancer treatment.438-441openAccesssurface coatingsurface treatmentsneoplasmstherapyradiation sourcesiodine 125iridium 192Surface coating and study of metallic cores for radioactive sources production used in cancer treatmentTexto completo de eventohttps://orcid.org/0000-0002-5054-0799https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7303-6720http://orcid.org/0000-0003-1335-8864https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2943-6097
