Intravaginal Brachytherapy

Intravaginal Brachytherapy is a form of internal radiation therapy in which a radioactive source is placed within the vaginal cavity to deliver localized high-dose radiation to residual or at-risk gynecologic tumor beds, distinguishing it from external beam radiotherapy and interstitial brachytherapy by its non-invasive applicator placement and conformal dose distribution to the vaginal surface.
