Evaluation of image-guidance strategies in the treatment of localized prostate cancer
Setup errors increased with decreasing frequency of image guidance. However, residual errors were still significant at the 5-mm level, even with imaging was performed every other day. This suggests that localizations must be performed daily in the set up of prostate cancer patients during a course of external beam radiotherapy.
Size matters: A comparison of T1 and T2 peripheral non–small-cell lung cancers treated with stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)
Stereotactic body radiation therapy for T2 non–small-cell lung cancer has a higher local recurrence rate and trended toward a worse survival than did T1 lesions. Tumor size is an important predictor of response to stereotactic body radiation therapy and should be considered in treatment planning.
Critical Structure Sparing in Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Central Lung Lesions
HT appears to be superior to VMAT in OAR sparing mainly in cases which require conformal dose avoidance of multiple immediately adjacent OARs. For such cases, increasing the number of arcs in VMAT cannot significantly improve OAR sparing.
Investigation of accelerated partial breast patient alignment and treatment with helical tomotherapy unit
The inherent volumetric imaging capabilities of a TomoTherapy Hi-Art unit allow for alignment of patients undergoing partial breast irradiation that is determined from the visibility of the seroma cavity on the MVCT image. The precision of the MVCT-based alignment was better than 2 mm (± standard deviation) when averaged over the patient population.
Does TomoDirect 3DCRT represent a suitable option for post-operative whole breast irradiation? A hypothesis-generating pilot study
The present study showed that TD-3DCRT and TD-IMRT are two feasible and dosimetrically acceptable treatment approach for AWBRT, with an optimal PTV coverage and adequate OARs sparing. Some concerns might be raised in terms of dose to organs at risks if TD-3DCRT is applied to a general population.
Single-session and multisession CyberKnife radiosurgery for spine metastases
Single-session and MS SRS is safe and effective in treating spinal metastases. Over the 1st year, pain control was superior with SS treatment compared with MS treatment. There was no statistically significant difference in toxicity between treatment groups.
Radiosurgery for Spinal Metastases
The results indicate the potential of radiosurgery in the treatment of patients with spinal metastases, especially those with solitary sites of spine involvement, to improve long-term palliation.
Treatment of spinal tumors using Cyberknife fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery
CyberKnife stereotactic radiosurgery is a safe and effective modality in the treatment of patients with spinal tumors. CyberKnife offers durable pain relief and maintenance of quality of life with a very favorable side effect profile.
CyberKnife Radiosurgery in Neurosurgical Practice
CyberKnife radiosurgery represents a significant advance over the very successful Gamma Knife radiosurgical treatment platform.
