Dosimetric analysis of varying cord planning organ at risk volume in spine stereotactic body radiation therapy
BACKGROUND Spine stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is becoming widely accepted as first-line treatment of oligometastatic spine disease as well as in the postoperative setting. The reported incidence of myelopathy is very low and guidelines vary widely on the maximum tolerable dose of the spinal cord and thecal sac. METHODS AND MATERIALS Between April 2008 and December 2010, radiatio...
متن کاملSingle fraction radiosurgery/stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for spine metastasis: A dosimetric comparison of multiple delivery platforms
There are numerous commercial radiotherapy systems capable of delivering single fraction spine radiosurgery/SBRT. We aim to compare the capabilities of several of these systems to deliver this treatment when following standardized criteria from a national protocol. Four distinct target lesions representing various case presentations of spine metastases were contoured in both the thoracic and lu...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiotherapy for solitary spine metastasis
A clear consensus has not been established regarding the best treatment for solitary bone metastasis. Here, we reviewed the medical records of patients with a controlled primary malignancy who had only solitary spine metastasis without metastasis to the extraspinal bone or viscera and underwent treatment between April 2007 and December 2012 with stereotactic body radiosurgery using CyberKnife, ...
متن کاملStereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Treatment of Spinal Bone Metastasis.
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) appears an effective and safe treatment modality for spinal bone metastasis, which can enhance local control and improve quality of life. Life expectation, predicted fracture risk, localization, quality, size and number of metastasis and presence or absence of nerve compression seem to be important factors in decision-making for treatment. Further stud...
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 ...
