Microselectron hdr afterloader

Manufactured by Elekta
Visit Supplier

The MicroSelectron HDR afterloader is a medical device used for high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy treatments. It is designed to remotely deliver a radioactive source to specific locations within the body, allowing for targeted radiation therapy. The device's core function is to accurately control the movement and positioning of the radioactive source during the treatment process.

The treatment was initiated on the fourth day of the surgery. All patients were treated with an Elekta microSelectron HDR afterloader, using a high-activity Iridium-192 source (Fig. 3). The delivered dose was 3400 cGy, delivered in 10 fractions twice daily at 6-hour intervals. The target dose and organs at risk (OAR) dose constraints were modified from the GEC-ESTRO study.

HDREBT was performed using a microSelectron HDR afterloader (Elekta, Veenendaal, the Netherlands) with an Iridium-192 source. Verification of correct applicator positioning and determination of the indexer length was done by comparing the reference DRR from the planning-CT with anteroposterior and lateral radiographs, taken in treatment position.( 20)

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
