| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We established quality assurance methods of source positions, source strength, and dose distribution to standardize safe, and high-precision three-dimensional image-guided brachytherapy (3D IGBT) in terms of medical physics. We had a patent application on the tools developed in this study, and commercialized these (Japanese Patent Application No.2015-079169). These tools can be contributory to quality assurance performed by brachytherapy user in Japan. Also, these are available as postal audit system for credentialing of 3D-IGBT in the designated regional cancer centers and hospitals in Japan.
