Integration of rotatable tandem applicator to conventional ovoid applicator toward complete framework of intensity modulated brachytherapy (IMBT) for cervical cancer
Abstract
A new tandem applicator with tungsten shield for Ir-192 radiation source used in intra-cavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) enabled intensity modulated brachytherapy (IMBT) in cervical cancer treatment through fluence-modulation by rotating shield. Our previous work employed group-wise and element-wise sparsity constraints for plan optimization of tandem applicator to minimizes the number of activated angles and source dwell points for delivery...
