Analysis of Biologically Equivalent Dose of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Primary and Metastatic Lung Tumors
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal biologically equivalent dose (BED) for stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) by comparing local control rates in proportion to various total doses and fractionation schedules. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-four patients with early non-small-cell lung cancer and a single metastatic lung tumor were included in this study. Differences...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiation therapy for melanoma and renal cell carcinoma: impact of single fraction equivalent dose on local control
BACKGROUND Melanoma and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are traditionally considered less radioresponsive than other histologies. Whereas stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) involves radiation dose intensification via escalation, we hypothesize SBRT might result in similar high local control rates as previously published on metastases of varying histologies. METHODS The records of patients ...
