In vivo fiber-coupled RL/OSL dosimetry based on detectors placed in standard brachytherapy needles was demonstrated. The time-resolved dose-rate measurements were found to provide a good way to visualize the progression and stability of PDR brachytherapy dose delivery, and time-resolved dose-rate measurements provided an increased sensitivity for detection of dose-delivery errors compared with time-integrated dosimetry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
