Stereotactic 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 کاملReirradiation with stereotactic body radiation therapy after prior conventional fractionation radiation for locally recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma
PURPOSE Locally recurrent pancreatic cancer after prior radiotherapy is a therapeutic challenge with limited treatment options. This study examines the safety and efficacy of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locally recurrent pancreatic adenocarcinoma after prior conventional fractionation radiotherapy (CRT). METHODS AND MATERIALS Outcomes from all patients treated with SBRT for...
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...
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 کاملCyberKnife stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic ablative radiation therapy of patients with prostate cancer bone metastases.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and toxicity of CyberKnife (CK) stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic ablative radiation therapy (SABR) of patients with prostate cancer bone metastases. Analysis of prognostic and predictive factors was also performed. Material consisted of 51 patients with 71 bone oligometastases treated using CK SRS/SABR. In half of the patien...
