Purpose: Treatment planning for radiosurgery depends on the precise definition of radiation
target volumes. For vascular pathologies such as arteriovenous malformations (AVM), the …

✓ To determine the accuracy of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in comparison to
cerebral angiography after radiosurgery for an arteriovenous malformation (AVM), the …

Purpose Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is widely used to obliterate arteriovenous
malformations (AVMs). Its performance relies on the accuracy of delineating the target AVM …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been incorporated with stereotactic cerebral
angiography and computed tomography (CT) in the treatment planning process of heavy ion …

Object: In our department, radiosurgery as been employed for managing arteriovenous
malformations (AVMs) since 1984. An original, LINAC based, isocentric, multiple converging …

AP and lateral projection from digital substracted angiography are rarely sufficient to assess
the precise shape of complex AVMs. 3D X-ray angiography provides additional informations …

When the size of an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in any one direction is more than 4
cm, an attempt is made to treat it in two stages, separated by 6 months. The first stage treats …

[en] Radiation injury is the most serious complication after gamma knife radiosurgery. To
reduce the rate of radiation injury, it is important to minimize the irradiated volume of the …

In current practice of stereotactic radiosurgery for brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM),
an invasive head frame and localizer box are used to indirectly register 2D digital …

Stereotactic radiosurgery has long been recognized as the optimal form of management for
high-grade arteriovenous malformations not amenable to surgical resection. Radiosurgical …
