This study looks at whether women who receive internal radiation (brachytherapy) for cervical cancer may develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The goal is to understand emotional distress after treatment.
This trial tests a way to measure the exact radiation dose you receive during internal radiotherapy (brachytherapy). It aims to make treatment safer and more effective for prostate or gynecologic cancers.
This study looks back at medical records to understand results after brachytherapy (a form of cancer radiation delivered from inside or close to the tumor) in women with gynecologic cancer. It may help doctors improve future treatment decisions, but you would not have to receive an experimental treatment.
