Abstract

The paper is concerned with the comparison and discussion of the characteristics of dose distributions formed by the linear and point sources of gamma-radiation with radionuclides 60Co, 137Cs and 192Ir using different methods of intracavitary irradiation. Insignificant influence of the energy of the radiation of these sources on differences in a dose and distance decrease was shown. Recommendations for the choice of a rational method of the dose distribution formation for intracavitary gamma-therapy were issued.
