PurposeBrachytherapy (BT) is an essential component of definitive therapy for locally advanced cervical cancer. Despite the advantages of the dose distribution with BT in cervical cancer, there is paucity of specific skills required for good-quality BT applications. Furthermore, replacing BT with other modern external beam techniques as a boost can lead to suboptimal results in cervix cancer. Methods and MaterialsReview of available IAEA resources, research and cooperation programs available from the IAEA was completed. These opportunities can be used to address challenges in Brachytherapy.The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) provides support for BT through various means that includes education and training, both long term, short term and continuing medical education of professionals, providing expert visits to support implementation, development of curricula for professionals, e-learning through the human health campus, contouring workshops, 2D to 3D BT training, and virtual tumor boards. In addition, the IAEA provides support for implementing quality assurance in radiotherapy to its member states and provides guidelines for comprehensive audits in radiation therapy (QUATRO), and produces safety standards and training in radiation safety. In addition, mapping BT resources, making the case for investment and support for setting up BT services and radiotherapy centers are also available. The IAEA Dosimetry Laboratory provides calibration services to Secondary Standards Dosimetry Laboratories for well chambers used to confirm the reference air kerma rate of Co60 and Ir192 high-dose-rate BT sources, as well as for Cs137 low-dose-rate sources.Furthermore, the IAEA supports research and development in radiotherapy (and BT) through coordinated research activities that include controlled randomized clinical trials, Patterns of Care studies among others. Partnerships with professional organizations and funding bodies, as well as through the United Nations Joint Global Programme on Cervical Cancer Prevention and Control support radiotherapy activities, including BT in countries worldwide. ConclusionThe IAEA supports brachytherapy implementation, training and research and provides resources to professionals in the area.
