Abstract
Purpose To compare treatment plans for interstitial high dose rate (HDR) liver brachytherapy with 192 Ir calculated according to current-standard TG-43U1 protocol with model-based dose calculation following TG-186 protocol. Methods We retrospectively evaluated dose volume histogram (DVH) parameters for liver, organs at risk (OARs) and clinical target volumes (CTVs) of 20 patient cases diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or metastatic...
