- W2018601639 abstract "In vaginal vault brachytherapy, the critical normal tissues are bladder and rectum; doses to these tissues may be affected by the position of a single line applicator placed in the vagina. Dosimetry with the applicator lying at its natural angle in the vagina with the patient in the lithotomy position has been compared with the applicator held horizontal as defined by a spirit level in 30 consecutive patients. A mean change in angle of 19.7 degrees was found. This resulted in a mean decrease in ICRU (International Commission of Radiation Units and Measurements) rectal point dose when the applicator is horizontal of 12.9%, equivalent to a mean absolute dose reduction of 1.3 Gy for a prescription dose of 5.5 Gy at 5 mm depth. An increase in mean dose to the ICRU bladder point when the applicator is horizontal of 13.3%, equivalent to an absolute mean dose increase of 0.5 Gy per fraction for the same prescription dose, was also found. On the basis of these findings, it is recommended that vaginal vault brachytherapy is performed with a single line source held in the corrected horizontal position to reduce bowel dose as this is the most sensitive critical normal tissue." @default.
