Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer Using Tomotherapy With Synchrony Fiducial Tracking
نویسندگان
چکیده
Numerous prospective and retrospective studies have demonstrated the efficacy safety of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for prostate cancer. Since SBRT utilizes a very tight margin, management intrafraction motion is necessary. As real-time tracking correction system (Synchrony; Accuray, Sunnyvale, CA) has been introduced in newer platform tomotherapy (Radixact; Accuray), Radixact can deliver SBRT. In case report, we present first clinical experience with using Synchrony fiducial tracking.

Image-Guided Robotic Stereotactic Radiation Therapy with Fiducial-Free Tumor Tracking for Lung Cancer
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for early-stage lung cancer can be achieved with several methods: respiratory gating, body frame, or real-time target and motion tracking. Two target tracking methods are currently available with the CyberKnife® System: the first one, fiducial tracking, requires the use of radio-opaque markers implanted near or inside the tumor, while the other...
متن کاملProctitis following stereotactic body radiation therapy for prostate cancer
BACKGROUND Proctitis after radiation therapy for prostate cancer remains an ongoing clinical challenge and critical quality of life issue. SBRT could minimize rectal toxicity by reducing the volume of rectum receiving high radiation doses and offers the potential radiobiologic benefits of hypofractionation. This study sought to evaluate the incidence and severity of proctitis following SBRT for...
متن کاملPotency preservation following stereotactic body radiation therapy for prostate cancer
BACKGROUND Erectile dysfunction after prostate radiation therapy remains an ongoing challenge and critical quality of life issue. Given the higher dose of radiation per fraction using stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) there is concern that post-SBRT impotency would be higher than conventional radiation therapy approaches. This study sought to evaluate potency preservation and sexual fu...
متن کاملDysuria Following Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Prostate Cancer
BACKGROUND Dysuria following prostate radiation therapy is a common toxicity that adversely affects patients' quality of life and may be difficult to manage. METHODS Two hundred four patients treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) from 2007 to 2010 for localized prostate carcinoma with a minimum follow-up of 3 years were included in this retrospective review of prospectively ...

PURPOSE To assess prostate-specific antigen (PSA) kinetics and report on the oncologic outcomes for patients with localized prostate cancer treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) using CyberKnife. METHODS We extracted the list and data of 39 patients with clinically localized prostate cancer who had undergone primary SBRT using CyberKnife between January 2008 and December 201...
