Dose modeling of superficial brachytherapy applicator geometries using multiple radioisotopes

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Background Superficial brachytherapy enables localized dose delivery for superficial cutaneous lesions, but conventional applicators may be limited in treating extended, irregular, or curved surfaces. Geometric constraints, gaps or overlaps between adjacent applicators, and placement‐related uncertainties can reduce dose uniformity ...
