Comparative study of dosimetry and treatment outcome of two different dose fractionation schedules of high dose rate intracavitary brachytherapy in locally advanced cancer cervix

Both HDR brachytherapy schedules showed comparable efficacy with no significant difference in local control, but 6Gy per fraction for 4 fractions (Arm B) had a better toxicity profile and higher biologically equivalent dose, although long-term follow-up is needed to assess late toxicities.
