Purpose The availability of miniaturized 60 Co sources introduced an alternative to 192 Ir
sources in high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy applications, with an advantage in terms of
resource and workload sparing. The latter stems from the difference in source exchange
frequency, owing mainly to the difference in the half-life of the two radionuclides.
