Abstract
Brachytherapy method using individualized applicators to increase efficiency in skin tumors treatment is presented. Skin tumors are one of the most common types of cancer in the world. Nonmelanoma skin basal cell and squamous cell skin carcinomas, known as NMSCs, are the most common cancers. The main purpose of this work is to comprehend basic treatment methods of skin tumors. The other purpose is to emphasize advantages and impact of the brachytherapy method using individualized applicators. Earlier skin tumor treatment methods are surgery and external (electron beam) radiotherapy. However, the brachytherapy method not widely used in skin tumor treatment process provides more efficient results due to the usage of individualized applicators specially produced for patients. Conclusively, individualized applicators provides more benefits and the fact that these applicators are improved much facilitates treatment process.
