Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for lung cancer
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has evolved over the past 15 years and revolutionized the management of early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Compared to conventional radiation therapy, SBRT offers superior outcomes, lower costs and greater patient convenience.1 SBRT likewise offers local control and cancer outcomes approaching surgical resection2-8 with lower risk of treat...
متن کاملAdaptive Stereotactic-body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) Planning for Lung Cancer Significance and Innovation: Tumor shrinkage during SBRT of lung cancer
Introduction: SBRT is an emerging radiotherapy technique for treating early-stage non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) or oligometastatic lesions to the lung [3, 4]. Significant tumor shrinkage has been observed in some patients during the course of SBRT [1, 2]. Adaptive planning has the potential to reduce radiation dose to organs of risk (OARs), and further escalate radiation dose to the tumor...
متن کاملStereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for lung cancer patients previously treated with conventional radiotherapy: a review
Lung cancer continues to be one of the most prevalent malignancies worldwide and is the leading cause of death in both men and women. Presently, local control rates are quite poor. Improvements in imaging and radiation treatment delivery systems however have provided radiation oncologists with new tools to better target these tumors. Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is one such techni...
متن کاملEvaluation of initial setup errors of two immobilization devices for lung stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)
The aim of this study was to investigate the accuracy and efficacy of two commonly used commercial immobilization systems for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) in lung cancer. This retrospective study assessed the efficacy and setup accuracy of two immobilization systems: the Elekta Body Frame (EBF) and the Civco Body Pro-Lok (CBP) in 80 patients evenly divided for each system. A cone ...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and respiratory gating in lung cancer: dosimetric and radiobiological considerations
The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of respiratory gating on tumor and normal tissue dosimetry in patients treated with SBRT for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Twenty patients with stage I NSCLC were studied. Treatment planning was performed using four-dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) with free breathing (Plan I), near-end inhalation (Plan II), and near-en...
