[A rapid radiotherapy planning program in intracavitary afterloading therapy].
A recently developed program for the irradiation planning of intracavitary afterloading applications in the treatment of gynecological diseases is presented. On the basis of measured data, a rapid algorithm for calculating the dose within the field near to ray emitters is introduced which avoids any uncertainties as to the greatest activity and the dose rate constant. Distance- and direction-dependent corrections of the inverse square law are performed by means of polynomials easy to calculate or by tables. The structure and performance of the program are described. Some examples are given in order to illustrate the possible applications of the irradiation planning program.
