Dose selection in stereotactic radiosurgery.
Selecting optimal doses for radiosurgery requires a thorough consideration of existing dose-response data for radiation injury of brain and surrounding structures and of the doseresponse for the desired endpoint (tumor control, obliteration of a vascular malformation, relief of trigeminal neuralgia, etc.). This paper reviews the radiobiological and physics principles that should be considered i...
متن کاملEsophageal tolerance to high-dose stereotactic radiosurgery
PURPOSE Esophageal tolerance is needed to guide the safe administration of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). We evaluated comprehensive dose-volume parameters of acute esophageal toxicity in patients with spinal metastasis treated with SRS. MATERIALS AND METHODS From May 2008 to May 2011, 30 cases in 27 patients with spinal metastasis received single fraction SRS to targets neighboring esophag...
متن کاملStereotactic Radiosurgery/Radiotherapy: A Historical Review
"Stereotactic" is an exact radiotherapy treatment modality which implements invasive and non-invasive facilities for improving precise dose delivery. Stereotactic refers to three-dimensional localization of a specific point in space by a unique set of coordinates that relate to a fixed external reference frame. An accurate delivery of radiation is attainable using these techniques with high pre...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery.
The development and scope of stereotactic radiosurgery is described. The technique, which combines well with the latest diagnostic methods, has already proved a safe and effective way of treating inaccessible cerebral lesions and in particular small arteriovenous malformations, acoustic neuroma and the solid component of craniopharyngioma, as well as playing an increasingly useful role in the t...
متن کاملStereotactic Radiosurgery for Sarcoma
The primary treatment of most sarcoma patients is surgery. The wider the excision, the lower the probability of local failure. For typical cases of non-CNS disease, adjuvant RT is offered in most cases in addition to surgery to optimize local control. However, bone and soft tissue sarcoma is historically considered a “radioresistant” tumor because conventionally fractionated radiation treatment...
