Oligometastases: history of a hypothesis [PDF]
Annals of Palliative Medicine, 2021 The term oligometastases represents a clinical state of metastatic disease that is limited in the number of metastatic sites and extent of disease, and amenable to metastasis-directed surgical or ablative therapy. While metastasis-directed approaches are used for palliation, the primary goal of such treatment for patients with oligometastases is to ...

Evaluating the trade-off between plan complexity, dosimetric accuracy, and treatment efficiency: Role of aperture shape controller settings in HyperArc for intracranial oligometastases. [PDF]
Precis Radiat OncolIn HyperArc™ SRS for intracranial oligometastases, Aperture Shape Controller (ASC) settings minimally affect dosimetric quality and overall plan complexity. High ASC strengths significantly reduce Monitor Units (MUs), enhancing treatment efficiency, thereby achieving an optimal balance for clinical use.

Clinical and Translational Radiation Oncology, 2023 Aim: Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) showed increasing survival in oligometastatic patients. Few studies actually depicted oligometastatic disease (OMD) evolution and which patient will remain disease-free and which will rapidly develop a ...

Stereotactic radiotherapy for lung oligometastases
Reports of Practical Oncology and Radiotherapy, 2022 30-60% of cancer patients develop lung metastases, mostly from primary tumors in the colon-rectum, lung, head and neck area, breast and kidney. Nowadays, stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT ) is considered the ideal modality for treating pulmonary metastases.

MicroRNA expression characterizes oligometastasis(es). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Cancer staging and treatment presumes a division into localized or metastatic disease. We proposed an intermediate state defined by ≤ 5 cumulative metastasis(es), termed oligometastases.

Stereotactic radiotherapy for bone oligometastases
Reports of Practical Oncology and Radiotherapy, 2022 About 60-90% of cancer patients are estimated to develop bone metastases, particularly in the spine. Bone scintigraphy, computed tomography (CT ) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI ) are currently used to assess metastatic bone disease; positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT ) has become more widespread in clinical practice because ...

Stereotactic body radiation therapy for abdominal oligometastases: a biological and clinical review
Radiation Oncology, 2012 Advances in imaging and biological targeting have led to the development of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) as an alternative treatment of extracranial oligometastases.
