[ 1 ] - The Effect of Breast Phantom Material on the Dose Distribution in AccuBoost Brachytherapy
Introduction: Long-term teletherapy program is not suitable for old and working patients and those living in areas where little access to primary health care is available. Accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) using high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is an appropriate alternative for these patients due to its limited number of fractions. The AccuBoost is a system for delivering APBI. Th...
[ 2 ] - Consideration of accurate dose distribution for Contura balloon catheter in breast brachytherapy with MCNP5 simulation
Introduction: Contura is a balloon applicator that used to deliver intra cavity radiation for Partial Breast Irradiation (PBI) treatments. Contura with 4 peripheral lumens surrounding the central, for loading HDR sources from an after loader system can provide an asymmetric dose distribution and gives a more flexible shape of dose than earlier balloon applicators such as Mammo...
[ 3 ] - Monte Carlo investigation on precise dosimetry of HDR breast brachytherapy with Accuboost
Introduction: Accuboost is a HDR brachytherapy system in early stages breast cancer treatment. This device provides a completely noninvasive procedure with parallel-opposed radiation from two immobilizing peripheral applicators that caused it a preferred option of modalities to choose. In most commercial treatment planning systems, tissues are considered as a simple water phan...
