Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) involves the delivery of a small number of ultra-
high doses of radiation to a target volume using very advanced technology and has …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Relative to X-ray beams, proton [1H] and carbon ion [12C]
beams provide superior distributions due primarily to their finite range. The principal …

PURPOSE: To review the dose limits and standardize the three-dimenional (3D)
radiographic definition for the organs at risk (OARs) for thoracic radiotherapy (RT), including …

BACKGROUND: This study was undertaken to determine outcomes of stereotactic body
radiotherapy for colorectal liver metastases in a pooled patient cohort. METHODS: Patients …

Purpose To derive recommendations for routine practice and clinical trials for techniques
used in high-dose, high-precision thoracic radiotherapy for lung cancer. Methods A literature …

PURPOSE: Volumetric modulated arc therapy (RapidArc) allows for fast delivery of
stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) delivery in stage I lung tumors. We compared dose …

Almost 20 years ago, Emami et al. presented a comprehensive set of dose tolerance limits
for normal tissue organs to therapeutic radiation, which has proven essential to the field of …

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to identify factors contributing to an increased risk
for vertebral compression fracture (VCF) following stereotactic body radiation therapy …

The delivery of high dose conventional stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for patients
with stage I lung tumors generally takes 30–45min per fraction. The novel volumetric …

Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) has become a standard treatment option for early
stage, node negative non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in patients who are either …
