Kilovoltage cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging may be useful in verifying patient position in stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). To evaluate its efficacy, we investigated isocenter differences in the radiation beam and CBCT with respect to the achievable setup of a conventional frame-based SRS system. A verification phantom constructed from two plastic boards and Gafchromic-EBT film (4 ...
BACKGROUND Brain metastases occur in up to 40% of all patients with systemic cancer. We aimed to assess whether stereotactic radiosurgery provided any therapeutic benefit in a randomised multi-institutional trial directed by the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group (RTOG). METHODS Patients with one to three newly diagnosed brain metastases were randomly allocated either whole brain radiation ther...
AIMS AND BACKGROUND This retrospective analysis reports the outcomes obtained with an original once-weekly stereotactic radiotherapy fractionation given to patients affected by evolving oligometastases from different solid malignancies. METHODS From 2009 to 2011, patients with symptomatic and/or evolving oligometastases were submitted to a median 5-fraction cycle of stereotactic radiotherapy ...
OBJECTIVE To describe and synthesize the current stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) cost-effectiveness research to date across several common SRS and SBRT applications. METHODS This review was limited to comparative economic evaluations of SRS, SBRT, and alternative treatments (e.g., other radiotherapy techniques or surgery). Based on PubMed searche...
BACKGROUND In recent reports, re-irradiation with stereotactic body radiotherapy for lung tumors in patients previously treated with thoracic radiation therapy resulted in several serious toxicities. Serious non-lung toxicities were observed mostly in patients with central tumors, but we experienced a case of fatal gastric perforation after a second stereotactic body radiotherapy in a patient w...
Gliomas include a group of primary central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms with characteristics of neuroglial cells (eg, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes). The gliomas are classified commonly to WHO grade I-IV gliomas. The grading is based on the presence of nuclear atypia, vascular proliferation, mitoses, and necrosis. The malignant gliomas are progressive brain tumors that are divided into anaplas...
The aims of radiation therapy of brain metastases include maintaining neurocognitive function and control of disease and, hopefully, improvement of survival. We present a case report with a very long survival in which the role of repeated stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) was investigated for a patient with a recurrent brain metastasis from non-small cell lung cancer in the same area. Stereotacti...
PURPOSE Magnetic resonance imaging-guided radiation therapy has entered clinical practice at several major treatment centers. Treatment of early-stage non-small cell lung cancer with stereotactic body radiation therapy is one potential application of this modality, as some form of respiratory motion management is important to address. We hypothesize that magnetic resonance imaging-guided tri-co...
