Implanted dosimeters identify radiation overdoses during IMRT for prostate cancer

RB Den, K Nowak, I Buzurovic, J Cao… - International Journal of …, 2012 - Elsevier
PURPOSE: Image-guided dose-escalated radiotherapy is the standard of care for the
treatment of prostate cancer. Although many published methods are available that account
for prostate motion during delivery, evidence demonstrating that the planned dose is actually
delivered on a daily basis is lacking. We report our initial clinical experience using
implantable dosimeters to quantify and adjust the dose received during intensity-modulated
radiotherapy (IMRT). METHODS AND MATERIALS: A total of 20 patients undergoing IMRT …
