This study evaluated absorbed dose of brachytherapy according to the nanoparticle in prostate cancer which many occurred in Korean man and provided basic data. Absorbed dose evaluation was using MCNPX program which was applied Monte Carlo simulation. Source was applied 192 Ir which was many using in Korean HDR machine and gold, ferric oxide, gadolinium and iodine nanoparticle were applied. Prostate absorbed dose result was increased when using nanoparticle, in particular gold nanoparticle was the highest result as 3.13E-13 J/kg·e. Absorbed dose of surrounding organs and distance was similar between using nanoparticle and non-using nanoparticle. Therefore, brachytherapy was used nanoparticle was increased therapeutic ratio and efficiency of radiation therapy.
