Abstract

Abstract: Recent advances in brachytherapy (BT) and chemotherapy, as well as consensus statements from several different organizations, were examined in this study as they pertain to the treatment of locally advanced cervical cancer (LACC). Since patients undergoing intensive chemotherapy before, during, and after radiation therapy (RT) experienced significant toxicities, it was decided that no additional conventional therapeutic options should be pursued. The use of PET-CT and MRI in the assessment of pelvic lymph nodes and bone marrow metastases improved pelvic RT planning. It can be concluded from the findings of the study that by administering an integrated boost for metastatic pelvic lymph nodes in IMRT followed by MRI-guided adaptive beam therapy, patients with LACC may benefit from modern radiation therapy methods that treat bladder and rectum tissues while shortening treatment times.
