Purpose: To investigate the feasibility of in vivo dosimetry using microMOSFET dosimeters in patients treated with brachytherapy using two types of gynecological applicators.
Methods And Materials: In this study, a microMOSFET was placed in an empty needle of an Utrecht Interstitial Fletcher applicator or MUPIT (Martinez Universal Perineal Interstitial Template) applicator for independent verification of treatment delivery. Measurements were performed in 10 patients, with one to three microMOSFETs per applicator and repeated for one to four fractions, resulting in 50 in vivo measurements.
