Does optimum organ volume range for organs at risk dose in cervical cancer intracavitary brachytherapy?
There is a relationship between the volumes of OARs and their received doses. Selecting a bladder with a volume of about 70 cm(3) or less proved to be better with regards to the dose to the bladder, rectum, and sigmoid.
Titration of the RF application time to the maximal EGM attenuation based on the ME recordings represents atrial lesion maturation and deep ventricular lesions. Prolonging the RF application results in greater extracardiac injury and char formation without increasing lesion size.
