宫颈癌近距离放射治疗取得了巨大进展。放射治疗计划已从二维发展到三维，将磁共振成像和/或计算机断层扫描纳入治疗范式。这样可以更好地描绘和覆盖肿瘤，并更好地避开周围器官。因此，与历史方法相比，先进的近距离放射治疗可以实现非常高的局部控制率，同时降低发病率。本综述概述了最先进的妇科近距离放射治疗，重点关注最新进展及其对宫颈癌女性的影响。
Dramatic advances have been made in brachytherapy for cervical cancer. Radiation treatment planning has evolved from two-dimensional to three-dimensional, incorporating magnetic resonance imaging and/or computed tomography into the treatment paradigm. This allows for better delineation and coverage of the tumor, as well as improved avoidance of surrounding organs. Consequently, advanced brachytherapy can achieve very high rates of local control with a reduction in morbidity, compared with historic approaches. This review provides an overview of state-of-the-art gynecologic brachytherapy, with a focus on recent advances and their implications for women with cervical cancer.
