Brachytherapy can deliver high doses to the target while sparing healthy tissues due to its
steep dose gradient leading to excellent clinical outcome. Treatment accuracy depends on …

Brachytherapy is an effective treatment in the curative management of prostate and
gynaecological cancers. With advances in technology, brachytherapy has increased in …

Purpose The purpose of this article is to demonstrate that brachytherapy source tracking can
be realized with in vivo dosimetry. This concept could enable real-time treatment monitoring …

Brachytherapy has an excellent clinical outcome for different treatment sites. However, in
vivo treatment verification is not performed in the majority of hospitals due to the lack of …

Purpose This paper presents a method to verify dwell times during High Dose Rate (HDR)
Brachytherapy (BT) by means of in vivo dosimetry (IVD), and reports on an afterloader's …

Purpose Brachytherapy (BT) deals with high gradient internal dose irradiation made up of a
complex system where the source is placed nearby the tumor to destroy cancerous cells. A …

Purpose A direct planning approach with multi-channel vaginal cylinders (MVCs) used for
HDR brachytherapy of vaginal cancers is particularly challenging. Purpose of this study was …

In vivo dosimetry is a powerful tool for dose verification in radiotherapy. Its application in
high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is usually limited to the estimation of gross errors, due …

Purpose Dose to the rectum during brachytherapy treatment may differ from an approved
treatment plan which can be quantified with in vivo dosimetry (IVD). This study compares the …

With the increase in complexity of brachytherapy treatments, there has been a demand for
the development of sophisticated devices for delivery verification. The Centre for Medical …
