Retrospective Dosimetric Comparison of HDR Interventional Radiotherapy (Brachytherapy) Versus Planning with VMAT and Electron Beam Therapy for Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer Treatment

Retrospective Dosimetric Comparison of HDR Interventional Radiotherapy (Brachytherapy) Versus Planning with VMAT and Electron Beam Therapy for Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer Treatment

This study compares dosimetric outcomes of high-dose-rate (HDR) interventional radiotherapy (IRT) using Iridium-192, Volumetric Modulated Arc Therapy (VMAT), and electron beam therapy for non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC).
