Integration of IMRT and Brachytherapy

Jeffrey F. Williamson

Integrated courses of IMRT-brachytherapy treatment offer many clinical advantages. These range from reducing the toxicity profile associated with standard combinations of external beam therapy and brachytherapy to achieving dose intensification or accelerated fractionation to an extent not possible by either modality alone. However, combined modality treatment presents several challenges that currently available brachytherapy and IMRT planning technology are ill equipped to manage. One challenge is evaluation of composite dose distributions derived from individual treatment plans that differ significantly in partial organ coverage and fractionation. Another challenge is significant differences in soft-tissue organ locations and shapes between the brachytherapy and IMRT treatment geometries. Clinical application of surrogate biological endpoints and non-rigid image registration techniques, currently active areas of research, are promising general solutions to these problems. In the absence of suitable planning and treatment verification tools, these sources of uncertainty should be considered in designing combined modality treatment protocols.
