Use of ultrasound imaging in the localisation and verification of brachytherapy treatments
The authors’ institution utilises ultrasound technology in a number of radiotherapy treatments. Ultrasound enables visualisation of organs and applicator positioning in brachytherapy treatments, ensuring safe and accurate treatment without the associated risk of concomitant radiation exposure. Barbara Segedin et al concluded: “Ultrasound guidance of applicator insertion is useful and feasible, allowing the completion of the […]
