Is radiation an appropriate alternative for a patient with multiply recurrent CIN 3 being considered for hysterectomy but unable to be medically optimized for surgery?

if so, would you favor brachytherapy alone? What dose?

No good data but by rationale this is reasonable

Brachytherapy alone using 3D image guidance is what I would use

7 to 8 gy x 5 fractions to entire cervix
