High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy quality assurance: a practical guide
The widespread adoption of high dose rate brachytherapy with its inherent dangers necessitates adoption of appropriate quality assurance measures to minimize risks to both patients and medical staff. This paper is aimed at assisting someone who is establishing a new program or revising one already in place into adhere to the recently issued Nuclear Regulatory Commission (USA) regulations and th...
متن کاملImage guided radiation therapy boost in combination with high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy for the treatment of cervical cancer
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the dosimetric and clinical feasibility of image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) combined with high-dose-rate (HDR) intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) to improve dose distribution in cervical cancer treatment. MATERIAL AND METHODS For 42 cervical cancer patients, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were acquired after completion of whole...

(2013) 5(4), 383–388 Over the past two decades, several methods for minimally invasive tumor ablation have been developed and tested clinically. CT-guided high dose rate brachytherapy is an alternative radioablative technique that was introduced in clinical practice as a minimally treatment option almost 20 years ago w...
متن کاملImage-Guided High-Dose-Rate (HDR) Boost Localization Using MRI/MR Spectroscopy: A Correlation Study with Biopsy
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to compare the blind interpretations of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequences, diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), mapping, and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the prostate, in comparison to prostate biopsy to identify a valid dominant intraprostatic lesion (DIL) for dose escalation using high-dose rate brach...
متن کاملFractionated High-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy
Purpose: A growing body of data suggests that local control in nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) is related to the radiation dose administered. We conducted a singleinstitution study of high-dose radiotherapy (RT), which incorporated high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT). These results were analyzed together with data obtained from controls who did not receive BT. Patients and Methods: The BT group...
