Abstract

Two brachytherapy applicators commonly used in the treatment of uterine cervical carcinoma, the Henschke shielded and Fletcher-Suit-Declos, were randomly and prospectively compared in vivo in 20 patients. Based on two-dimensional planning and the ICRU-38 bladder and rectal reference points, an advantage for the shielded Henschke applicator was demonstrated.
