Comparison of two high dose rate brachytherapy regimes
Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2023 Background: Two HDR brachytherapy regimes were compared, 9.5 Gray per fraction for two fractions and 7.5 Gray per fraction for three fractions. Materials and Methods: A total of 80 patients with histologically evident squamous cell carcinoma cervix were ...

An analytic approach to the dosimetry of a new BEBIG 60 Co high-dose-rate brachytherapy source
Journal of Medical Physics, 2012 We present a simple analytic tool for calculating the dose rate distribution in water for a new BEBIG high-dose-rate (HDR) 60 Co brachytherapy source. In the analytic tool, we consider the active source as a point located at the geometric center of the ...
