IMRT vs IGBT
•
For IMRT CTV-PTV
margins
is needed, i.e. a larger
volume, compared to brachytherapy, has to be
treated .
•
D90
for IMRT was
lower
compared to BT for most
of the patients.
•
The volumes receiving
intermediate doses
(>60Gy)
are much larger for IMRT.
•
The importance of
very high central doses
are most
likely of major importance for the excellent local
control obtained with brachytherapy
Advanced BT is superior to IMRT
