摘要
A summary of UK high dose rate brachytherapy practice in gynaecological cancer is presented. There appears to be relatively good uniformity in dose prescription and biological effective doses, which represents a considerable improvement from the findings of a previous report of UK low dose rate brachytherapy practice in 1991. Individual details of the dose schedules used at each treatment centre are presented.
