Dose–volume parameters and local tumor control in cervical cancer treated with central-shielding external-beam radiotherapy and CT-based image-guided brachytherapy

Journal of Radiation Research, 2019
Definitive radiotherapy for cervical cancer consists of external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) and brachytherapy. In EBRT, a central shield (CS) reduces the dose to the rectum and bladder. The combination of whole-pelvic (WP)- and CS-EBRT and brachytherapy is
