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 EBRT our dose delivery system (stepping source

within implanted catheters)

depends on the specific patient

implant geometry (anatomy

)

.

This is not the case for EBRT, where the performance of the dose

delivery system itself (MLC, Dose Rate, Energy, Gantry Angle,

Collimator Angle & Couch Settings) is independent of the specific

patient.
