Radiotherapy and radiosurgery for meningiomas [PDF]
AbstractMeningiomas comprise a histologically and clinically diverse set of tumors arising from the meningothelial lining of the central nervous system. In the past decade, remarkable progress has been made in deciphering the biology of these common neoplasms.

Comparative evaluation of normal tissue objective functions in robotic radiosurgery planning for solitary brain tumors. [PDF]
Abstract Background The normal tissue objective (NTO) is an inverse planning approach in radiosurgery, also available for the CyberKnife system. By employing a model function, it aims to achieve precise control over the global dose fall‐off in healthy tissue.

Radiosurgery for Radiosurgery-induced Cavernous Malformation
This report describes the use of radiosurgery for the treatment of a radiosurgery-induced cavernous malformation (CM).A 21-year-old woman underwent stereotactic biopsy of a pineocytoma and subsequent gamma knife radiosurgery (marginal 14.5 Gy, 50%) for the lesion.
