Dynamic gamma knife radiosurgery

Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2009
Gamma knife has been the treatment of choice for various brain tumors and functional disorders. Current gamma knife radiosurgery is planned in a ‘ball-packing’ approach and delivered in a ‘step-and-shoot’ manner, i.e. it aims to ‘pack’ the different sized spherical high-dose volumes (called ‘shots’) into a tumor volume.

Gamma knife radiosurgery for prolactinomas

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2000
Object. In this retrospective investigation the authors examined the results of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS) for tumor remnants after unsuccessful open surgery and medical treatment in 20 patients with prolactinomas. Particular attention is paid to a possible radioprotective action of dopamine agonists similar to the action of octreotide in ...
