In vivo dosimetry in brachytherapy: Requirements and future directions for research, development, and clinical practice
Brachytherapy can deliver high doses to the target while sparing healthy tissues due to its steep dose gradient leading to excellent clinical outcome. Treatment accuracy depends on several manual steps making brachytherapy susceptible to operational mistakes. Currently, treatment delivery verificati...
