Experimentally extract and validate the correction factors, including ionization quenching, to be applied to dose rates measured with a Plastic Scintillation Detector (PSD) for In-Vivo Dosimetry (IVD) in High Dose Rate (HDR) brachytherapy.
To quantify the dosimetric impact of transitioning from water-based TG-43 dose evaluations to advanced model-based TG-186 calculations in permanent prostate brachytherapy, and to assess the effects on target coverage, organ-at-risk doses, and the appropriaten...
Novel GPU-based multicriteria optimization (gMCO) for high-dose-rate gynecological brachytherapy (GYN-BT) generates large plan pools satisfying EMBRACE-II dosimetric constraints (Pötter et al., 2018). Differentiating plans with comparable dosimetry but potent...
