Dosimetric comparison of postoperative interstitial high-dose-rate brachytherapy and modern external beam radiotherapy modalities in tongue and floor of the mouth tumours in terms of doses to critical organs

Dosimetric comparison of postoperative interstitial high-dose-rate brachytherapy and modern external beam radiotherapy modalities in tongue and floor of the mouth tumours in terms of doses to critical organs

The aim of the study was to dosimetrically compare interstitial high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) and modern external beam radiotherapy modalities, as volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) and stereotactic radiotherapy with Cyberknife (CK) of tumours of the tongue and floor of the mouth in t...
