Modern Brachytherapy:
Treatment Delivery Verification
Delivered
Treatment versus
Planned
Treatment
Currently we assume that:
•
The geometry and location of the implanted catheters
•
The connection of channels to implanted catheters
•
The length of the channels
•
The source movement patterns (dwell positions and dwell times)
within the implanted catheters
•
The patient anatomy at the relevant location
are during treatment delivery exact as considered and planned in the RTP.
