CyberKnife radiosurgery for an intracardiac metastasis.
1 of 2 DESCRIPTION Intracardiac tumours move both with breathing and with the cardiac cycle; they therefore pose unique problems for radiotherapy delivery. Conventional radiotherapy must encompass the tumour with a margin to account for this motion, and the prescription is limited by myocardial radiation tolerance. The greater accuracy of radiosurgery allows higher radiation-dose deposition, wi...

متن کاملCyberKnife radiosurgery for prostate cancer.
Treatment of prostate cancer with SBRT is an area of significant controversy for many in the radiation oncology community despite radiobiologic data that strongly suggest the prostate would be an excellent SBRT target. Recently, new data have emerged that show promising outcomes with minimal toxicity for CyberKnife SBRT of prostate cancer. In the following we present the motivating factors for ...
متن کاملCyberKnife radiosurgery for spinal neoplasms.
The role of stereotactic radiosurgery for the treatment of intracranial lesions is well established. Its use for the treatment of spinal lesions has been limited by the availability of effective target immobilization and localization technologies. Conventional external beam radiotherapy lacks the precision to allow delivery of large doses of radiation near radiosensitive structures such as the ...
متن کاملCyberKnife radiosurgery for idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia.
OBJECT Gamma knife surgery is an accepted treatment option for trigeminal neuralgia (TN). The safety and efficacy of CyberKnife radiosurgery as a treatment option for TN, however, has not been established. METHODS Forty-one patients were treated between May 2002 and September 2004 for idiopathic TN at Stanford University and the Rocky Mountain CyberKnife Center. Patients with atypical pain, m...
