Intracranial stereotactic radiosurgery (Editors: LD Lunsford and J Sheehan)

Further exploration This book has everything for the neurosurgeon, oncologist, physicist, and allied health professionals involved in the delivery of intracranial radiosurgery. It covers all the common (and not so common) indications for its use ranging from vascular malformations, benign and malignant tumors to functional disorders and less common indications such as ocular disorders. For those interested in the historical evolution of the technique of stereotactic radiosurgery, it is very interesting to read how it developed from modest beginnings and evolved over the decades. For the basic scientist, it deals with the fundamental principles of radiobiology and physics which are important in understanding how the treatment works. Above all, it is essential reading for the clinically practicing radiosurgeon/oncologist in terms of current indications, outcomes, and complications, which are the fundamental nuggets of information we share with our patients on a day‐to‐day basis.
