Stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy for lung cancer.
Lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is a method of delivering high 'ablative' doses of radiotherapy to tumours in the lung. It was developed at the Karolinska Institute in the early 1990s using the methods established in cranial radiosurgery with multiple beams prescribed to an isodose and using a custom designed stereotactic body frame for immobilisation. Since then, aligned with th...
متن کاملComplications from Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Lung Cancer
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has become a standard treatment option for early stage, node negative non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients who are either medically inoperable or refuse surgical resection. SBRT has high local control rates and a favorable toxicity profile relative to other surgical and non-surgical approaches. Given the excellent tumor control rates and increasin...
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 کاملClinical and molecular markers of long-term survival after oligometastasis-directed stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT).
BACKGROUND The selection of patients for oligometastasis-directed ablative therapy remains a challenge. The authors report on clinical and molecular predictors of survival from a stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) dose-escalation trial for oligometastases. METHODS Patients who had from 1 to 5 metastases, a life expectancy of >3 months, and a Karnofsky performance status of >60 received esc...
متن کاملTherapeutic Potential of Adjuvant Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Gallbladder Cancer
Surgical treatment remains the only curative treatment for gallbladder cancer. However, even after liver resection, locoregional failure seems to be a significant problem. While there is no Level I evidence, multiple studies have shown benefit for adjuvant radiation in high-risk patients. After extensive liver resection, tolerance to conventional chemoradiation may be limited by potential liver...
