Low toxicity for lung tumors near the mediastinum treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy.
PURPOSE To report the local control, survival, and low toxicity observed at the Cooper University Hospital CyberKnife Center post stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in the treatment of lung tumors near the mediastinum. METHODS AND MATERIALS Twenty-four medically inoperable lung cancer patients with tumors near the mediastinum were treated using the Accuray CyberKnife system (Accuray, ...
متن کاملNormal tissue toxicity after small field hypofractionated stereotactic body radiation
Stereotactic body radiation (SBRT) is an emerging tool in radiation oncology in which the targeting accuracy is improved via the detection and processing of a three-dimensional coordinate system that is aligned to the target. With improved targeting accuracy, SBRT allows for the minimization of normal tissue volume exposed to high radiation dose as well as the escalation of fractional dose deli...
متن کاملDosimetric factors predicting radiation pneumonitis after CyberKnife stereotactic body radiotherapy for peripheral lung cancer
OBJECTIVE The aims of this study were to investigate the frequency of symptomatic radiation pneumonitis (RP) after CyberKnife lung stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) and to evaluate predictive factors of symptomatic RP. METHODS 56 patients with peripheral non-small-cell lung cancer were treated using the CyberKnife® VSI™ System (Accuracy Inc., Sunnyvale, CA) between May 2013 and September ...
متن کاملStereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
Song and colleagues deliver a thorough and fair review of the initial clinical investigations of a new paradigm in radiotherapy most recently called stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).[1] Oncology observers may take exception with the use of the designation “new paradigm.” After all, from a tumor control point of view, skeptics might say, “radiotherapy is radiotherapy.” Recent advances ...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiation therapy.
Stereotactic body radiation therapy constitutes an emerging therapeutic paradigm. These treatments are unique relative to the large body of experience with conventional fractionated radiotherapy. On the basis of the treatment principles of intracranial stereotactic radiation combined with enhancements associated with immobilization and imaging, the role of extracranial treatment continues to ev...
