Uterine perforation and its dosimetric implications in cervical cancer high-dose-rate brachytherapy

摘要

PurposeTo retrospectively assess the incidence of sub-serosal and uterine perforation of intra-uterine tandem in intracavitary high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy for cervical cancer, and to evaluate its dosimetric implications on computed tomography (CT)-based treatment planning.
