Radiosurgery for Brain Metastases
Except for solitary lesions causing mass effect, the treatment of brain metastases is primarily palliative. In the case of solitary metastases, the occurrence of longterm survival is not unheard of; but in general, the guiding philosophy is palliation, reversal of neurologic deficits and maintenance of quality of life and functional status. There has been disagreement regarding the total number...
متن کاملFrameless, Real-Time, Surface Imaging-Guided Radiosurgery: Clinical Outcomes for Brain Metastases.
BACKGROUND Frameless stereotactic radiosurgery is commonly used to treat intracranial metastases, but mask-based immobilization can be uncomfortable for patients. OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical outcomes using a novel real-time, frameless, surface imaging--guided radiosurgery (SIG-RS) technique to treat brain metastases. METHODS Data were prospectively gathered for 44 consecutive patient...
متن کاملFrameless stereotactic radiosurgery for brain metastases: a review of outcomes and prognostic scores evaluation.
INTRODUCTION Stereotactic brain radiosurgery provides good local control in patients with limited brain metastases. A newly developed frameless system allows pain-free treatment. We reviewed the effectiveness of this frameless stereotactic brain radiosurgery and identified prognostic factors that may aid better patient selection. METHODS Medical records of patients with brain metastases treat...
متن کاملInitial experience with using frameless image-guided radiosurgery for the treatment of brain metastases.
AIM Recent technologic advances have led to the development of frameless radiosurgery. We report our initial results using frameless image-guided radiosurgery for the management of brain metastases. METHODS Over a 2-year period, 16 patients harboring 28 lesions were treated in our institution. 12 of 16 patients were treated in a single fraction, but 4 patients were treated using fractioned st...
متن کاملFrameless, real-time, surface imaging-guided radiosurgery: update on clinical outcomes for brain metastases
Frameless stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for intracranial brain metastases can provide more comfortable treatment setup than rigid frame-based immobilization with equivalent accuracy. The aim of this study is to report the UCSD SRS experience and update the clinical outcomes using a novel real-time, frameless, surface imaging-guided (SIG-RS) technique in the treatment of brain metastases. Data...
