Abstract
A vaginal Ra applicator is described for use in treatment of carcinoma of the cervix. The Ra tubes (two 25 mg sources) are carried in 2 perspex heads mounted on spreader arms and the final Ra spacing may be read off from calibrations on the barrel of the applicator. A table gives calculated dose rates for various Ra separations and relative positions of a 50 mg intrauterine source.
