No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Phase I study evaluating the feasibility of using electromagnetic navigation (EMN) for the catheter implantation procedure required of cervical brachytherapy. The addition of EMN to the current HDR brachytherapy workflow has the potential to dramatically improve implant quality and efficiency for the gynecological interstitial brachytherapy program. Implant quality has been reported to be an important predictive factor for local control and late toxicity.
