“…Multiple approaches are under development for delivering temporary intensity modulated brachytherapy (IMBT) [1][2][3][4] using partially shielded applicators including serial rotating shield brachytherapy (RSBT), [5][6][7][8][9] helical RSBT, [10][11][12] and direction modulated brachytherapy (DMBT). [13][14][15][16] These techniques have been proposed to reduce the need for interstitial brachytherapy for cervical cancer patients in favor of an intracavitary approach, 6,[8][9][10][11][14][15][16] improving tumor dose conformity for prostate cancer, 7,12 and improving tumor dose conformity for rectal cancer.…”

“…4,21,[25][26][27] Rotating-shield brachytherapy (RSBT) is a form of intensity-modulated brachytherapy proposed to enable dose escalation in HDR-BT monotherapy and reduce urethral dose in HDR-BT boost therapy. [28][29][30] In a treatment planning study comparing RSBT using a 153 Gd source with a multisource apparatus to that of conventional 192 Ir-based HDR-BT, RSBT was shown to be theoretically capable of increasing the dose to the PTV by 42.5% AE 8.4% with fresh 153 Gd sources and 20.5% AE 9.1% with sources aged one half-life, without increasing urethral dose. 31 The initial 153 Gd source was investigated for RSBT because of a low transmission value of 6.4% through shielding, 31 increasing dose conformity.…”

“…Intensity-modulated brachytherapy (IMBT) methods are commonly validated by MC dose calculations. 12 Skinner et al 13 investigated the use of high-Z 3D printed applicators in 192 Ir IMBT using TOPAS MC code. Mao et al 14 developed a deep learning-based rapid dose calculation engine RapidBrachyDL, which was validated using MC dose calculations with RapidBrachyMCTPS, an MC-based TPS.…”
