Measurement of transit time of a high dose rate remote afterloading brachytherapy source
Description
Quantification of transit time of high dose rate (HDR) remote after-loading brachytherapy source is important. A well ionization chamber can be used to measure the transit time of the HDR brachytherapy source. It is hoped that results of the present investigation will stimulate further work in developing simple and accurate methods of measurement of transit time
