Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Acromegaly [PDF]

International Journal of Endocrinology, 2012
Acromegaly is debilitating disease occasionally refractory to surgical and medical treatment. Stereotactic radiosurgery, and in particular Gamma Knife surgery (GKS), has proven to be an effective noninvasive adjunct to traditional treatments, leading to disease remission in a substantial proportion of patients.

Outcomes of single brain metastasis treated with gamma knife stereotaxic radiosurgery(GKSR). Our experience on 103 cases

IBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2023
Background: Brain metastases (BM) occur in the natural course of malignant tumors in 18–40% of cases. Their management has changed considerably over the past decade thanks to the advent of Gamma knife Stereotactic Radiosurgery (GKSR).

A retrospective study demonstrating the growth patterns and the pseudoprogression temporal classification after stereotactic radiosurgery for sporadic vestibular schwannomas

Scientific Reports
Background and objectives Vestibular schwannomas are known to demonstrate tumor expansion, commonly referred to as pseudoprogression, after SRS. It is critical to differentiate between true tumor progression and pseudoprogression as this may entail ...

Mixed‐Metal Promotion in a Manganese‐Molybdenum Oxynitride as Catalyst to Integrate C─C and C─N Coupling Reactions for the Direct Synthesis of Acetonitrile from Syngas and Ammonia

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Transition metal oxy/carbo‐nitrides show great promise as catalysts for sustainable processes. A Mn‐Mo mixed‐metal oxynitride attains remarkable performance for the direct synthesis of acetonitrile, an important commodity chemical, via sequential C─N and C─C coupling from syngas (C1) and ammonia (N1) feedstocks.
