The method allows almost quantitative deposition of iodine-131 on dozens of silver substrates at once, with even distribution of activity per core and insignificant amounts of liquid and solid radioactive wastes, allowing the fabrication of cheaper radioactive iodine seeds for brachytherapy.76-81openAccessbrachytherapydepositionfabricationiodine 125iodine 131isotope productionliquidsradioactive wastesradioisotopesseedssilversubstratesArtigo de periódico12010.1016/j.apradiso.2016.11.023https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2943-6097http://orcid.org/0000-0003-1335-886431.52
