A modified ovoid applicator for intracavitary radiotherapy was developed for Japanese and other Asian women. It has more variations of smaller sized ovoids than the original rigid standard applicator of the Selectron-MDR and microSelectron-HDR. In addition, application of the ovoid pair and tandem flange is easy due to the flat surface of the inner aspect of the ovoid pairs, which prevents slippage of the ovoids and flange. The applicator is described together with source loading and dose distribution.
一种用于腔内放射治疗的改良型卵形施源器专为日本及其他亚洲女性研制。与Selectron-MDR和microSelectron-HDR的原始刚性标准施源器相比,它有更多尺寸较小的卵形变体。此外,由于卵形对内侧表面平整,卵形对和串联翼缘的应用很容易,这可防止卵形施源器和翼缘滑动。本文对该施源器以及源加载和剂量分布进行了描述。
