Comparison of tumor regression rate of uterine cervical squamous cell carcinoma during external beam and intracavitary radiotherapy

Purpose We compared the radioresponse of cervical carcinoma that was closely related to local disease control by the tumor regression rate (RR) during intracavitary radiotherapy (ICRT) and external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) on the presumption that ICRT has a stronger treatment impact than EBRT because of its specific dose distribution.
