Dosimetric Comparison of VMAT Alone and VMAT with HDR Brachytherapy Boost Using Clinical and Biological Dose Models in Localized Prostate Cancer

Dosimetric Comparison of VMAT Alone and VMAT with HDR Brachytherapy Boost Using Clinical and Biological Dose Models in Localized Prostate Cancer

Background: Combining external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) with high-dose-rate (HDR) brachytherapy (BT) enables biologically effective dose escalation in prostate cancer. However, comparative evaluation of such regimens using radiobiological modeling remains limited. Methods: Dose regimens based on cli...
