Single and multitarget stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) with single isocenter in the treatment of multiple brain metastases (BM): institutional experience.

Introduction: SRS for the treatment of limited brain metastases (BM) is widely accepted, but there are still limitations in the management of numerous BM. Frameless single-isocenter multitarget SRS is a novel technique that allows for rapid treatment delivery to multiple BM. We report our preliminary clinical, dosimetric, and patient´s shifts outcomes with this technique.

Analysis of intra-fractional positioning correction performed by cone beam computed tomography in SBRT treatments.

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the positioning correction extracted from Intra-fraction Cone Beam (IF-CBCT) images obtained during Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) treatments, and to assess whether its magnitude justifies its acquisition. In addition, the results obtained in lung, liver, and pancreas SBRTs with two deep inspiration breath-hold systems (DIBH), and for prostate with/without ultrasound (US) monitoring were compared.

Methods: 1449 treatments, performed with two linear accelerators (LINACs) were retrospectively analyzed.

Dosimetrical and geometrical parameters in single-fraction lattice radiotherapy for the treatment of bulky tumors: Insights from initial clinical experience.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate lattice radiotherapy (LRT) for bulky tumor in 10 patients, analyzing geometrical and dosimetrical parameters and correlations among variables.

Methods: Patients were prescribed a single-fraction of 18 Gy to 50 % of each spherical vertex (1.5 cm diameter).

Real-world efficacy of postoperative radiotherapy with a moderate dose-escalation for phyllodes tumors of the breast.

Background: Phyllodes tumors are rare breast tumors comprising less than 1% of cases, categorized as benign, borderline, or malignant. Treatment typically involves complete surgical excision with wide margins. Adjuvant radiotherapy may be recommended for borderline or malignant tumors, or when clear margins cannot be achieved through surgery alone.
