Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

Current Problems in Cancer, 2005
Stereotactic body radiation therapy constitutes an emerging therapeutic paradigm. These treatments are unique relative to the large body of experience with conventional fractionated radiotherapy. On the basis of the treatment principles of intracranial stereotactic radiation combined with enhancements associated with immobilization and imaging, the ...

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

American Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2007
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is a novel technique that takes advantage of the technologic advancements in image guidance and radiation dose delivery to direct ablative doses to tumors with acceptable toxicity that was not previously achievable with conventional techniques.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

2015
Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) is a noninvasive method to deliver high doses of precision radiotherapy to small tumors in the body using novel technologies developed over the last 15 years. Since its inception, this approach was initially developed to shorten therapy for patients with severe limitations making more prolonged courses of radiation

Stereotactic body radiation therapy for oligometastases

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2009
The standard treatment for metastatic cancer is systemic therapy. However, in a subset of patients with limited extracranial metastases or oligometastases, local ablative therapy in combination with systemic therapy may improve treatment outcomes.

[Stereotactic body radiation therapy and oligometastases].

Cancer radiotherapie : journal de la Societe francaise de radiotherapie oncologique, 2014
In stage IV cancers, locoregional management of primitive tumours as surgery and/or radiotherapy improved both progression-free survival and overall survival. Among metastatic cancer patients, some of them are considered as oligometastatic stage as they present few metastatic sites associated with low tumor aggressiveness.

Stereotactic ablative body radiosurgery (SABR) or Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT)

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2017
While conventional treatment relies on protracted courses of therapy using relatively small dose-per-fraction sizes of 1.8-2Gy, there is substantial evidence gathered over decades that this may not be the optimal approach for all targetable disease.

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy in Spinal Metastases

International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2012
Based on reports of safety and efficacy, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for treatment of malignant spinal tumors was initiated at our institution. We report prospective results of this population at Mayo Clinic.Between April 2008 and December 2010, 85 lesions in 66 patients were treated with SBRT for spinal metastases. Twenty-two lesions (25.8%)

Emergence of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

Oncology Nursing Forum, 2014
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) evolved from the application of stereotactic radiosurgery, which is focused intracranial radiation. SBRT offers high doses of specific radiation with oligofractions (five or less) to a specified target, providing local control to circumscribed tumors while sparing surrounding normal tissue.

Safety Considerations in Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy

Seminars in Radiation Oncology, 2017
Although many error pathways are common to both stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and conventional radiation therapy, SBRT presents a special set of challenges including short treatment courses and high-doses, an enhanced reliance on imaging, technical challenges associated with commissioning, special resource requirements for staff and ...
