Major geometric variations between multiple high-dose-rate applications of brachytherapy in cancer of the cervix: frequency and types of variation.

abstract：:Twenty-nine patients with known or suspected malignancy were studied with identical T1-weighted (spin echo [SE] and inversion recovery [IR]) and T2-weighted SE magnetic resonance (MR) imaging at 0.5 and 1.5 T to evaluate the relative sensitivities of these sequences for detecting focal hepatic lesions. At 0.5 T, 98 le...
