Dosimetric analysis of rib interference of the CTV during interstitial brachytherapy of lung tumors
Purpose : In interstitial brachytherapy for lung tumors, the placement and alignment of the source needles are influenced by the ribs, which can affect the dose distribution. This study evaluated the change in dose to the target by comparing the dose between the actual interstitial brachytherapy pla...
