Popis: To find out the simple relationship between Total Reference Air Kerma (TRAK) and various isodose volumes. Calculated isodose volumes were compared with experimental data for revised Manchester and International Commission on Radiation Units and measurements (ICRU)-89 Point A-based treatment plans. The accuracy of the formula was compared with the results of other relationships available in the literature.Dosimetric data from 62 intracavitary brachytherapy (ICBT) treatment plans of 31 patients with cervical cancer were studied. Each patient had treatment plans normalized to revised Manchester and ICRU-89 Points A (AIn the case of revised Manchester-based AThe developed formula calculated isodose volumes within the accuracy of ± 3% in ICBT plans.
