A study of high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy boost for curative treatment of uterine cervical cancer
PURPOSE This study assessed the trial of boost intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) for the patients of uterine cervical cancer with residual malignant cells detected at the final stage of ICBT. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of 75 patients with cervical cancer treated radically with external beam radiotherapy and high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy between August ...
متن کاملNon isocentric film-based intracavitary brachytherapy planning in cervical cancer: a retrospective dosimetric analysis with CT planning
PURPOSE To compare intracavitary brachytherapy dose estimation for organs at risk (bladder and rectum) based on semi-orthogonal reconstruction of radiographs on non-isocentric X-ray unit and Computed Tomography (CT) - based volumetric planning in cervical cancer. MATERIAL AND METHODS Bladder and rectal points as per International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) report 38...
متن کاملCaudal epidural anesthesia during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer
It has been suggested that pain control during intracavitary brachytherapy for cervical cancer is insufficient in most hospitals in Japan. Our hospital began using caudal epidural anesthesia during high-dose-rate (HDR) intracavitary brachytherapy in 2011. The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively investigate the effects of caudal epidural anesthesia during HDR intracavitary brachy...
متن کاملIntracavitary Brachytherapy in Cervical Cancer: a Physics Perspective
By the early 1950s, after its discovery and implementation in medicine, brachytherapy (BT) had become a wellestablished modality of treatment.. As it is today, intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) was used to deliver most of the central tumor dose for cervical cancer [1]. Because of the developments in external beam radiotherapy, allowing delivery of doses to deep tumors competitive with those ac...
متن کاملDifferent effects of bladder distention on point A-based and 3D-conformal intracavitary brachytherapy planning for cervical cancer
This study sought to evaluate the differential effects of bladder distention on point A-based (AICBT) and three-dimensional conformal intracavitary brachytherapy (3D-ICBT) planning for cervical cancer. Two sets of CT scans were obtained for ten patients to evaluate the effect of bladder distention. After the first CT scan, with an empty bladder, a second set of CT scans was obtained with the bl...
