Dosimetric and Deformation Effects of Image-Guided Interventions during Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy of the Prostate using an Endorectal Balloon

, 2012
During Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) for the treatment of prostate cancer, an inflatable endorectal balloon (ERB) may be used to reduce motion of the target and reduce the dose to the posterior rectal wall.

Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Central Lung Tumors [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Oncology, 2012
Patients with centrally located lung tumors have been reported to have a higher risk of toxicity when treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) compared with patients with peripheral tumors. The optimal SBRT fractionation schedule for treatment of central tumors is unknown.

Intrafraction motion and impact of margin reduction for MR‐Linac online adaptive radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer treatments

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 17-24, March 2025.
This analysis included quantification of intrafraction motion in pancreas stereotactic ablative radiotherapy treated on the MR‐Linac, leading to the development of adjusted (PTV) margins. Intrafraction motion indicated an average target displacement of 1–3 mm, resulting in an adjusted PTV margin of 2 mm in the right–left and superior–inferior ...

Identification of Predictive Factors for Isolated Brain Progression in Patients With Cerebral Metastatic Melanoma After Treatment With Stereotactic Brain Radiotherapy

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Melanomas often metastasize to the brain, leading to a significantly poor prognosis despite advances in local and systemic treatments. In clinical practice, we frequently observe varying response patterns and progression dynamics between cerebral and extra cerebral sites. Objectives This study aims to identify predictive factors for
