Stereotactic Radiosurgery/Radiotherapy: A Historical Review
"Stereotactic" is an exact radiotherapy treatment modality which implements invasive and non-invasive facilities for improving precise dose delivery. Stereotactic refers to three-dimensional localization of a specific point in space by a unique set of coordinates that relate to a fixed external reference frame. An accurate delivery of radiation is attainable using these techniques with high pre...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery.
The development and scope of stereotactic radiosurgery is described. The technique, which combines well with the latest diagnostic methods, has already proved a safe and effective way of treating inaccessible cerebral lesions and in particular small arteriovenous malformations, acoustic neuroma and the solid component of craniopharyngioma, as well as playing an increasingly useful role in the t...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for spine tumors: review of current literature.
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SR) is increasingly utilized for the treatment of intracranial and extracranial pathology. It is considered an important adjuvant to surgery, chemotherapy or fractionated radiotherapy, and the role of SR as a primary treatment modality continues to be explored. Although SR for spinal lesions is in its infancy, there is a growing body of literature supporting its effic...

There has been significant progress and innovation in the treatment of patients with metastatic spinal tumors over the last two to three decades that has impacted our ability to provide individualized care that improves a patient's quality of life and degree of neurologic impairment. Advances in surgical techniques and radiation delivery modalities have dramatically improved our ability to decr...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery for intracranial meningiomas: current concepts and future perspectives.
Meningiomas are among the most common adult brain tumors. Although the optimal management of meningiomas would provide complete elimination of the lesion, this cannot always be accomplished safely through resection. Therefore, other therapeutic modalities, such as stereotactic radiosurgery (as primary or adjunctive therapy), have emerged. In the current review, we have provided an overview of t...
