Brain metastases: radiosurgery
2018Stereotactic radiosurgery has revolutionized the management of brain metastases. It delivers focused, highly conformal, ionizing radiation to a tumor delineated using high-resolution imaging, with low toxicity to adjacent brain structures. Randomized controlled and prospective trials have demonstrated a survival advantage and high local control rates ...

Most physicians hold the perception that patients with RCC metastatic to the brain have a poor prognosis (Halperin and Harisiadis 1983; Decker et al. 1984).

The incidence of symptomatic brain metastases in Denmark is about 3500. In the present review, the aetiology, symptomatology, and diagnostic procedures are described. The main topic is a review of current treatments and the evidence for their efficacy. Treatment of brain metastases rarely cures the patient, the goal is rather to improve the quality of ...
