Comparison of multileaf collimator and conventional circular collimator systems in Cyberknife stereotactic radiotherapy
Multileaf collimator (MLC) technology has been newly introduced with the Cyberknife system. This study investigated the advantages of this system compared with the conventional circular collimator (CC) system. Dosimetric comparisons of MLC and CC plans were carried out. First, to investigate suitable target sizes for the MLC mode, MLC and CC plans were generated using computed tomography (CT) i...
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 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 کاملEffect of CyberKnife stereotactic body radiation therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma on hepatic toxicity
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety of CyberKnife stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients and identify the treatment-related risk factors of hepatic toxicity. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and four HCC patients treated with CyberKnife SBRT were included in this study between August 2009 and December 2012. The average dose of prescribed radiation...
متن کاملCyberknife Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Nonresectable Tumors of the Liver: Preliminary Results
PURPOSE Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as a treatment option for local tumor control of primary and secondary malignancies of the liver. We report on our updated experience with SBRT in patients with non-resectable tumors of the liver. METHODS Our first 17 consecutive patients (mean age 58.1 years) receiving SBRT for HCC (n = 6), IHC (n = 3), and LM (n = 8) are present...
