Strategies to reduce uncertainties for
brachytherapy planning and treatment
•
Organ filling protocols
•
Optimize target contouring (MRI, US, …)
•
Adaptive planning to reduce large systematic/random variations between
fractions (online planning, plan of the day)
•
Advanced in vivo dosimetry (dose rate time profiles)
•
Online imaging in treatment room (comparable to CBCT in EBRT) –
limited by infrastructure of the BT suite (imaging in treatment room)
➢
CBCT, in-room MRI/CT, 3D ultrasound, …
