Pulsed dose rate brachytherapy – is it the right way?
Pulsed dose rate (PDR-BT) treatment is a brachytherapy modality that combines physical advantages of high-doserate (HDR-BT) technology (isodose optimization, radiation safety) with the radiobiological advantages of low-dose-rate (LDR-BT) brachytherapy. Pulsed brachytherapy consists of using stronger...
