An Initial Feasibility Study to Integrate MRI Based Brachytherapy and CT/MR Fused INRT in Treatment of Advance Cervical Cancer

Main cause of mortality in cervix cancer is local relapse in the pelvis. Since distant metastasis is quiet rare, increasing local control in the pelvis can directly translate into improvement in survival. Obstacles in front of this approach is the dose limitation to normal organs located in the pelvis adjacent to the tumor. 3-D MRI based EBRT and Brachytherapy will grant safe delivery of more conformal higher doses of radiation to the tumor and allowing sparing of the normal structures.
