Abstract
A brachytherapy seed localization system for localizing radioactive seeds within a diseased tissue, the brachytherapy seed localization system employs a tool tracking machine () for generating a tracked seed distribution map () of delivered locations of the radioactive seeds within the diseased tissue, and a tissue imaging machine () for generating a seed distribution image () of projected locations of the radioactive seeds within the diseased tissue including at least one false projected location. The brachytherapy seed localization system further employs a brachytherapy seed localizer () for generating a composite seed distribution map () of estimated locations of the radioactive seeds within the diseased tissue derived from a combination of the tracked seed distribution map () and the seed distribution image () excluding any false projected location(s) within the seed distribution image ().
