A comparison of dose distribution from Manchester-style and Fletcher-style intracavitary brachytherapy applicator systems in cervical cancer
PURPOSE: During intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) for cervical cancer, the choice of applicator system remains rather arbitrary. However, as the applicator geometry may play an important role in dose distribution, thereby improving the therapeutic ratio, this study was conducted to compare the Manc...
