The radiation dosage in the base of the bladder and in the anterior wall of the rectum during intracavitary irradiation of cervix carcinoma can be determined easily by use of intracavitary transvesical and transrectal ultrasound and simultaneous radiography. In case of excessive doses to the organs at risk, the dose can be lowered by rearrangement of the vaginal gauze packing in the same sitting.
