BRT
versus
ERT Similarities and
Differences
•
Verification
We mean the
process
of proof that we deliver the dose we
planned to the tissue (3D) within a specific accuracy and
precision level.
•
BRT (HDR)
In opposite to ERT our dose delivery system (stepping source
within implanted catheters)
depends on the specific patient
implant geometry (anatomy)
.
This is not the case for ERT, where the performance of the dose
delivery system (MLC Dose Rate Energy Gantry Angle
,
,
,
,
Collimator Angle & Couch Settings) is independent of the specific
patient.
