    Comment

    Ein Begriff aus der Radiotherapie zur Krebsbehandlung mittels Brachytherapie.

    ... etwa "tumour-encompassing" ?

    In the linked article it's been translated as covering the tumour.

    "In HDR brachytherapy, an applicator is placed in proximity to the tumour and a single sealed radioactive source attached to a guide wire is electromechanically moved to different positions within the applicator to create a dose distribution covering the tumour. The position of the source within the applicator and the dwell time at each position are varied to create the desired dose distribution covering the tumour."
