High Dose Rate Prostate Brachytherapy
2021High Dose Rate (HDR) brachytherapy is a safe and effective method of treating men with prostate cancer. It is used in the definitive setting as monotherapy or in combination with hormonal therapy and/or external beam radiation therapy. It is also used in the salvage setting for local recurrence after primary radiotherapy.

Cervix cancer brachytherapy: High dose rate
Cancer/Radiothérapie, 2014Cervical cancer, although less common in industrialized countries, is the fourth most common cancer affecting women worldwide and the fourth leading cause of cancer death. In developing countries, these cancers are often discovered at a later stage in the form of locally advanced tumour with a poor prognosis.

Postoperative High-Dose-Rate Brachytherapy in the Prevention of Keloids
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2007The aim of this study is to show the efficiency of keloidectomy and postoperative interstitial high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy in the prevention of keloids.Between 1998 and 2004, 35 patients with 54 keloids were treated postoperatively with HDR brachytherapy.

High-dose rate brachytherapy for carcinoma of the cervix
Current Opinion in Oncology, 1993Increasingly popular in Europe and Asia as the intracavitary component for cervical cancer radiotherapy, high-dose rate brachytherapy demonstrates certain advantages over historical low-dose rate treatments. High-dose rate intracavitary treatment improves radiation safety, lessens treatment times, allows for outpatient treatment regimens, and has ...

Photocurrent modeling at high dose rates
IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 1989An analytical steady-state photocurrent model that includes ohmic field effects and treats (nonlinear) ambipolar diffusion and nonlinear recombination effects explicitly is developed. The nonlinear recombination and ambipolar diffusion are solved exactly, and the asymptotic ohmic field is treated as an approximate perturbation with fitted parameters ...

The effect of irradiation at extremely high dose-rates
The British Journal of Radiology, 1969Berry, Hall, Forster, Storr and Goodman (1969) have reported some very interesting results which indicate an apparent lower effectiveness of radiation exposure when delivered at extremely high dose-rates. Using in any one experiment a single pulse of given very short duration and varying the dose received by the cells within this brief pulse, they ...

High dose rate brachytherapy for prostate cancer
Cancer/Radiothérapie, 2008High dose rate (HDR) afterloading brachytherapy in the management of localised prostate cancer has practical, physical and biological advantages over low dose rate seed brachytherapy. There are no free live sources used, no risk of source loss and since the implant is a temporary procedure following discharge no issues with regard to radioprotection ...

High dose rate brachytherapy for the palliation of malignant dysphagia
Radiotherapy and Oncology, 2003High dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is a commonly used palliative treatment for esophageal carcinoma. We evaluated the outcome of HDR brachytherapy in patients with malignant dysphagia.A retrospective analysis over a 10-year period was performed of 149 patients treated with HDR brachytherapy, administered in one or two sessions, at a median dose of 15Gy.

Prostate Brachytherapy: High Dose Rate
2012Prostate cancer is the most common male malignancy in the Western world. Over the past decade, a significant shift has taken place in stage at diagnosis, with most patients now presenting with localized disease. Options for treatment include radical prostatectomy and different radiation modalities including external beam radiotherapy, low-dose-rate ...
