DOI: 10.1016/j.brachy.2021.12.007
Abstract: PURPOSE Nasopharyngeal brachytherapy is limited in part by the radiotolerance of nearby organs like the soft palate. This study explores several novel shielding designs for an intracavitary applicator to significantly reduce soft palate dose while… read more here.
