Stereotactic radiotherapy for the treatment of acoustic neuromas.
OBJECT The authors sought to assess the safety and efficacy of stereotactic radiotherapy when using a linear accelerator equipped with a micromultileaf collimator for the treatment of patients with acoustic neuromas. METHODS Fifty patients harboring acoustic neuromas were treated with stereotactic radiotherapy between September 1997 and June 2003. Two patients were lost to follow-up review. P...
متن کاملFractionated stereotactic radiotherapy for acoustic neuromas: a prospective monocenter study of about 158 cases.
PURPOSE To evaluate long-term outcomes and efficacy of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy in the treatment of acoustic neuromas. MATERIAL AND METHODS Between January 1996 and December 2009, 158 acoustic neuromas were treated by FSR in 155 patients. They received a dose of 50.4 Gy, with a safety margin of 1-2mm with a median tumor volume at 2.45 mL (range: 0.17-12.5 mL) and a median follow...
متن کاملEvaluation of efficacy and safety of robotic stereotactic body radiosurgery and hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy for vertebral metastases
AIM OF THE STUDY The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of applying CyberKnife (CK) radiosurgery in patients with spinal metastases. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-eight patients with vertebral metastases treated using the CK system were included in the study.

متن کاملProstate-specific antigen kinetics after hypofractionated stereotactic body radiotherapy for localized prostate cancer
Background: stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has emerged as an effective treatment for localized prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics after SBRT has not been well characterized. The objective of the current study is to analyze the rate of PSA decline and PSA nadir following hypofractonated SBRT in localized prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: From 2008...
متن کاملHypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy for the treatment of brain metastases.
BACKGROUND This retrospective review evaluated the efficacy and toxicity profiles of various dose fractionations using hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (HSRT) in the treatment of brain metastases. METHODS Between 2004 and 2007, 36 patients with 66 brain metastases were treated with HSRT. Nine of these subjects were excluded because of the absence of post-treatment magnetic resonance...
