Stereotactic body radiotherapy in the management of painful bone metastases.
More than 100,000 new cases of bone metastases are diagnosed each year, and they present an important clinical problem. They cause significant morbidity and quality-of-life issues in cancer patients. Conventional external-beam radiotherapy is currently the most common method to treat these metastases, with several randomized controlled trials showing no difference in effectiveness between multi...
متن کاملStereotactic body radiotherapy for lung metastases as oligo-recurrence: a single institutional study
The purpose of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes following stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for lung metastases as oligo-recurrence. From May 2003 to June 2014, records for 66 patients with 76 oligo-recurrences in the lungs treated with SBRT were retrospectively reviewed. Oligo-recurrence primary sites and patient numbers were as follows: lungs, 31; colorectal, 13; head and n...
متن کاملStereotactic 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 کاملTreatment of Lung Metastases from Ewing Sarcoma with Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy rather than Whole-Lung Irradiation
Advances in knowledge: Lung metastases from Ewing sarcoma have traditionally been treated with whole-lung irradiation (WLI) and chemotherapy. WLI may unnecessarily treat uninvolved normal lung tissue and increase the risk of toxicity. Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has proven to be a safe and effective treatment for primary lung cancer and lung metastases, but there is no significant pub...
متن کاملStereotactic ablative body radiotherapy for lung cancer.
Lung stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is a method of delivering high 'ablative' doses of radiotherapy to tumours in the lung. It was developed at the Karolinska Institute in the early 1990s using the methods established in cranial radiosurgery with multiple beams prescribed to an isodose and using a custom designed stereotactic body frame for immobilisation. Since then, aligned with th...
