  • BRACHYTHERAPY TREATMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20230310886
    Abstract: Misconnected applicators are eliminated in a brachytherapy treatment system by associating the output channels of an afterloader with the channel numbers after the applicators have been coupled to the output channels. In addition, the brachytherapy treatment system ensures the delivery of a proper dose by identifying the exact locations of the distal ends of the applicators right before the radiation treatment is to begin, and determining the final dose based on the exact locations.
