Transit dosimetry in 192Ir high dose rate brachytherapy
Background and purpose: Historically HDR brachytherapy treatment planning systems ignore the transit dose in the computation of patient dose. However, the total radiation dose delivered during each treatment cycle is equal to the sum of the static dose and the transit dose and every HDR applicati...
