Reevaluating BED in cervical cancer HDR brachytherapy: source decay and tissue-specific repair significantly impact radiobiological dose

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the influence of intrafraction DNA damage repair on biologically effective dose (BED) in Ir-192 high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) for cervical cancer. Specifically, we examine BED variations resulting from source decay at various treatment time points ac...
