title: [2 years' experience with a monitoring and recording system for gynecological afterloading irradiation].
abstract: A computer program running on a simple desk calculator has been developed for monitoring and recording gynecological high-dose afterloading therapy. For treatment monitoring the multiple-probe AM6-system (PTW-Freiburg) is used which allows for dose measurements in the urinary bladder and the rectum. The probe signals are processed on line in order to indicate the actual dose at the measuring points. After completing the irradiation the treatment is documented. Performing fractionated treatment the measuring data are stored in the computer memory for calculating total accumulated dose. The above-described monitoring and recording [correction of protocolling] system has proven its usefulness during two years of clinical work.
