Radiosurgery for Craniopharyngioma

International Journal of Radiation Oncology Biology Physics, 2010
To analyze the outcomes of gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) for residual or recurrent craniopharyngiomas and evaluate the factors that optimized the tumor control rates.A total of 46 patients with craniopharyngiomas underwent 51 SRS procedures at University of Pittsburgh between 1988 and 2007.

Radiosurgery for Glioblastoma

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2021
Glioblastoma (GBM) is infiltrative neoplasm with limited treatment options and poor overall survival. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) allows spatially precise and conformal delivery of high doses of radiation. Salvage SRS for locally recurrent GBM was shown to improve patient survival and have more favorable safety profile than repeated surgical ...

Proton Radiosurgery

Neurology India, 2023
Introduction: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is highly conformal, high-dose radiation therapy delivered in 1–5 fractions, and is considered the standard of care for several central nervous system (CNS) indications. Particle therapies, such as protons, have physical and dosimetric advantageous properties compared to photons ...

Radiosurgery of Meningiomas

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1992
In early experience, radiosurgery proved to be a relatively safe and effective therapy for selected patients with symptomatic meningiomas, including those for whom surgical resection failed. Radiosurgery also has been an effective primary treatment alternative for patients whose advanced age, medical condition, or high-risk tumor location preclude ...

Radiosurgery imaging

2022
The most important imaging technology for GKNS continues to be magnetic resonance. The introduction of 3 Tesla machines permits quicker studies with better signal to noise ratio. The more powerful magnet increases the chances of heating the points of contact between patient and frame, but this has been solved with non-conducting nuts. There are several

Radiosurgery

Critical Reviews in Neurosurgery, 1999
This review looks at papers dealing with radiosurgery for tumors, cavernous malformations, and arteriovenous malformations. The tumors were meningiomas, many of them at the base of the brain, and the results were excellent. One paper used the gamma knife for patients with cavernous malformations.

Radiobiology of Radiosurgery

2007
The effects of radiosurgery on brain tumor tissue remain to be defined. Effects are dose, volume, time, and tumor histology dependent. In this report, we discuss data from resected specimens after radiosurgery, and work to develop a classification method for radiosurgery effects.
