At approximately 1500 hrs on June 30, 2005, the licensee completed a seed implant for prostate cancer.  At the completion of that procedure, a scrub tech removed the tray from the area.  The physicist reported 39 unused seeds ten of which were most probably on a partially used ribbon.  (The licensee was using a MIC applicator.)  When the nuclear medicine technologist inventoried the sources, only 29 were present.  The facility located two seeds in a sink and a third in the drain of that sink.  The Radiation Safety Officer believes that the seven lost sources are in the sewer system.
