Abstract

A new CT/MRI multi-lumen brachytherapy applicator to optimize dosimetry and treatment of vaginal targets. The design includes several peripheral channels isotropically placed 5mm inside cylinder surface with a separate central channel allowing single lumen brachytherapy as an option. We compared optimized dosimetry plans between single channel versus multi-channel to determine potential dosimetric advantages in vaginal cancer treatment after hysterectomy.
