To improve global control of disease and reduce global toxicity, a complex seed distribution pattern should be achieved with great accuracy during brachytherapy.However, the interaction between the needle and prostate will cause large deformation of soft tissue.As a result, seeds will be misplaced, sharp demarcation between irradiated volume and healthy structures is unavailable and this will cause side effects such as impotence and urinary incontinence.In this paper, a 3D nonlinear dynamic finite element s...
