The use of a spacer has been recommended in interstitial brachytherapy for tongue cancer to reduce the radiation dose to the mandible. This article describes the development of two types of acrylic resin spacers, a mouth guard-type spacer for dentate patients, and a replica denture-type spacer for edentulous patients. These spacers can be used without suture retention and are comfortable for patients.
在舌癌间质近距离放疗中,推荐使用间隔物以减少下颌骨的辐射剂量。本文描述了两种丙烯酸树脂间隔物的研制,一种是用于有牙患者的护齿型间隔物,另一种是用于无牙患者的义齿复制型间隔物。这些间隔物无需缝线固定即可使用,且患者佩戴舒适。
