Table 3.

Standard treatment plan library with first 7 active dwell positions for 3.0 cm cylinder diameters for stainless steel vaginal cylinder applicator (Nucletron). Included are coordinates of the points on the applicator surface and at a distance of 5 mm; also included is the location of the dwell position coincident with the origin of the treatment plan. It is important to know that in this table the dose values shown at cylinder surface and at 5 mm from it are for representative purposes only. Their actual values will change based on the dose-prescription, normalization as well as optimization selected by the user on the fly
