Advanced Brachytherapy Physics - Vienna 2016

Conclusion • 3D imaging modalities are essential for modern brachytherapy

• Adequate QA/QC program is necessary for  Accurate localization of sources and applicators  Contouring (large uncertainties still remaining)  Dose calculation

• Brachytherapy moved to 3D is recent but multi modality - imaging is already at our door  D f bl i i e orma e reg strat on  Quantitative functional imaging
