Verification of the strength of high dose rate (HDR) (192)Ir brachytherapy sources on receipt from the vendor is an important component of institutional quality assurance program. Either reference air-kerma rate (RAKR) or air-kerma strength (AKS) is the recommended quantity to specify the strength of gamma-emitting brachytherapy sources. The use of Farmer-type cylindrical ionization chamber of ...
Introduction: Brachytherapy is one type of internal radiation therapy where radiation sources, which are usually encapsulated, are placed as close as possible to the tumor site or inside the patient's body. In this technique, it is important to determine dose distribution around the brachytherapy capsule to create optimal treatment plant. In this way, dosimetric parameters are...
Introduction: Brachytherapy is the use of small encapsulated radioactive sources in close vicinity of tumors. Various methods are used to obtain the dose distribution around brachytherapy sources. TG-43 is a dosimetry protocol proposed by the AAPM for determining dose distributions around brachytherapy sources. The goal of this study is to update this protocol for presence of bone and air inhom...
Introduction: Well type ionization chamber is a measuring device which is used to determine the activity of brachytherapy sources. The chamber has a cylindrical volume in which a cylindrical tube is mounted in the middle of the chamber. For the measurements, the brachytherapy sources are transferred to the middle of the tube. Materials and Methods: For designing the well type chamber, the measu...
introduction in this study, we aimed to calculate dose enhancement factor (def) for gold (au) and iron (fe) nanoparticles (nps) in brachytherapy and teletherapy, using monte carlo (mc) method. materials and methods in this study, a new algorithm was introduced to calculate dose enhancement by aunps and fenps for iridium-192 (ir-192) brachytherapy and cobalt-60 (co-60) teletherapy sources, using...
Radioactive 125I and 192Ir seeds are widely used as sources for interstitial implantation.192Ir is one of the important sources frequently used in brachytherapy. Up to now, different commercial models of this source type have been introduced to the clinical radiation oncology applications. The aim of the present study is to determine the dosimetric parameters of this new PDR Ir-192 source model...

application of radioactive isotopes is the treatment of choice around the globe for many cancer sites. in this technique, the accuracy of the radiation delivery is highly dependent on the accuracy of radiation dosimetry around individual brachytherapy sources. moreover, in order to have compatible clinical results, an identical method of source dosimetry must be employed across the world. this ...
introduction after the publication of task group number 43 dose calculation formalism by the american association of physicists in medicine (aapm), this method has been known as the most common dose calculation method in brachytherapy treatment planning. in this formalism, the water phantom is introduced as the reference dosimetry phantom, while the attenuation coefficient of the sources in the...
