Gamma knife radiosurgery for prolactinomas
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2000Object. 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 ...

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Hemangioblastomas
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1998Thirteen patients (11 males, 2 females) with cerebral hemangioblastomas (HABs) were treated with Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKR). Four patients had multiple lesions in the brain. The remainder had a single lesion. The total number of lesions was 20. Eight cases had recurrent or residual HABs after surgery.

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery of Meningiomas
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1992Fifty patients with meningiomas were treated during the initial 30 months experience using the 201 source cobalt-60 gamma knife at the University of Pittsburgh. The most frequent site of origin was the skull base. Stereotactic radiosurgery was the primary treatment modality in 16 (32%) patients with symptomatic tumors demonstrated by neuroimaging ...

Gamma knife radiosurgery for craniopharyngiomas
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2000Object. The goal of this study was to elucidate the role of gamma knife radiosurgery (GKS) and adjuvant stereotactic procedures by assessing the outcome of 31 consecutive patients harboring craniopharyngiomas treated between March 1993 and December 1999. Methods. There were 31 consecutive patients with craniopharyngiomas: 18 were men and 13 were women.

Dynamic gamma knife radiosurgery
Physics in Medicine & Biology, 2009Gamma 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 Meningioma
2019Since its first reported use in 1976 in Sweden, Gamma Knife (GK) radiosurgery has become an accepted treatment option for intracranial meningioma, either upfront, in combination with planned subtotal resection, or as adjuvant/salvage treatment. Initially, GK was used in patients unfit for a major surgical procedure or for high-risk meningiomas adjacent

Radiological Parameters for Gamma Knife Radiosurgery
Neurology India, 2023Accurate lesion targeting is the essence of stereotactic radiosurgery. With the currently available imaging modalities, scanning has become quick and robust providing a high degree of spatial resolution resulting in optimal contrast between normal and abnormal tissues.

"Radiosurgery" is stereotactic neurosurgery in which the usual rigid needles or probes are replaced with beams of ionizing radiation directed toward an intracranial target so as to achieve local tissue destruction. No skin incision or skull opening is required.
