Remote afterloading endocurie therapy for carcinoma of the cervix.

P P Kumar, F Bahrassa, M C Espinoza, J R Nibhanupudy.   

Abstract

Since October 1975, 41 cancer patients were treated with a remote afterloading device using fractionated high dose-rate intracavitary radiation. Nineteen of these 41 patients were treated for carcinoma of the cervix. Remote afterloading high dose-rate fractionated intracavitary radiation was given in combination with external irradiation. The dose fractionation and rad equivalent therapeutic (RET) values and various points of interest are discussed.
