  1. CET Cancer Center Oakland California High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy Gynecological Cancer D. Jeffrey Demanes M.D jdemanes@cetcancercenter.com

  2. Brachytherapy Radiation is given directly to target Gradient effect– relatively little dose to surrounding tissue CET

  3. Robotic High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy • Source position x Time = Effective Source Strength • HDR is given in 1-2 sessions per day • Radiation is confined to patient

  19. Applicator Selection • Intracavitary (T&O, Vaginal cylinders etc.) • Small lesion, good response to EBRT, adequate anatomy • If applicator fits • Interstitial (Template etc.) • Bulky disease, parametria or vaginal involvement • Anatomy not suitable for intracavitary .
