Stereotactic body radiotherapy for liver metastases.
The role for local ablative therapies in the management paradigm of oligometastatic liver disease is increasing. The evidence base supporting the use of stereotactic body radiotherapy for liver metastases has expanded rapidly over the past decade, showing high rates of local control with low associated toxicity. This review summarises the evidence base to date, discussing optimal patient select...
متن کاملStereotactic Radiotherapy for Liver Metastases
Liver metastases are common in oncologic patients, causing substantial morbidity and mortality. Systemic therapy is now standard palliative treatment for most patients with liver metastases, often providing transient responses and increased overall survival. In selected oligometastatic patients, local treatment can lead to long disease-free intervals and even permanent disease control. Although...
متن کاملIs internal target volume accurate for dose evaluation in lung cancer stereotactic body radiotherapy?
PURPOSE 4DCT delineated internal target volume (ITV) was applied to determine the tumor motion and used as planning target in treatment planning in lung cancer stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). This work is to study the accuracy of using ITV to predict the real target dose in lung cancer SBRT. MATERIALS AND METHODS Both for phantom and patient cases, the ITV and gross tumor volumes (GTVs...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiation therapy for liver metastases.
Although resection is the standard of care for liver metastasis, 80-90% of patients are not resectable at diagnosis. Advances in combination chemotherapy, particularly with targeted agents, have increased tumour response and survival in patients with unresectable metastatic colorectal cancer, but these techniques have limitations and may be associated with high recurrence rates. Some autopsy se...
متن کاملVolumetric modulated arc therapy treatment planning of thoracic vertebral metastases using stereotactic body radiotherapy
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES To retrospectively evaluate the plan quality, treatment efficiency, and accuracy of volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) plans for thoracic spine metastases using stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT). MATERIALS/METHODS Seven patients with thoracic vertebral metastases treated with noncoplanar hybrid arcs (NCHA) (1 to 2 3D-conformal partial arcs +7 to 9 IMRT beams) were ...
