Abstract
Bladder distension with 100Â cc of physiological saline can reduce maximum doses received by the small bowel without the alteration of the doses received by the other organs at risk during a 3D image-guided adaptive PDR BT for locally advanced cervical cancer. However, the maintenance of a predefined bladder volume is difficult to achieve with PDR BT, whereas it could be easily managed before each session in case of high-dose-rate BT.
