Combining flat‐panel imaging with internal BB markers for precise HDR brachytherapy source localization: A simulation study
The study demonstrates the feasibility of using a flat-panel detector, couch-attached markers, and a dummy wire for robust localization of the HDR brachytherapy source relative to both the room coordinates and the implant.
