Comparison of (60)Co and (192)Ir sources in HDR brachytherapy
This paper compares the isotopes (60)Co and (192)Ir as radiation sources for high-dose-rate (HDR) afterloading brachytherapy. The smaller size of (192)Ir sources made it the preferred radionuclide for temporary brachytherapy treatments. Recently also (60)Co sources have been made available with iden...
