Dose modification factor analysis of multilumen balloon brachytherapy applicator with Monte Carlo simulation
The Contura brachytherapy applicator is a silicone balloon with five lumens in which a high‐dose‐rate brachytherapy source can traverse. Multilumen applicators, like the Contura, are used in accelerated partial breast irradiation (APBI) brachytherapy in instances where asymmetric dose distributions...
