Creators

Description

The authors report a study which aimed at analysing dosimetric results on different dose-volume histograms obtained during a three-dimensional pulse dose rate curie-therapy. Six patients have been treated by post-operative curie-therapy of a tongue cancer. Using dose-volume histograms allows the dose delivered to organs at risk and to the target volume to be controlled.
