The feasibility, toxicity and tumor response of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for treatment primary metastastic liver tumors was investigated. From October 2002 until June 2006, 25 patients not suitable other local treatments were entered in the study. In total 45 lesions treated, 34 metastases 11 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Median follow-up 12.9 months (range 0.5–31). lesion size 3.2 cm 0.5–7.2) median volume 22.2 cm3 1.1–322). Patients with metastases, HCC without...

To introduce iCycle, a novel algorithm for integrated, multicriterial optimization of beam angles, and intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) profiles.A plan with iCycle is based on prescription called wish-list, containing hard constraints objectives ascribed priorities. Priorities are ordinal parameters used relative importance ranking the objectives. The higher an objective priority is, probability that corresponding will be met. Beam directions selected from input set candidate...

The Synchrony Respiratory Tracking System (RTS) is a treatment option of the CyberKnife robotic device to irradiate extra-cranial tumors that move due respiration. Advantages RTS are patients can breath normally and there no loss linac duty cycle such as with gated therapy. based on measured correspondence model (linear or polynomial) between internal tumor motion external (chest/abdominal) marker motion. radiation beam follows movement via continuously To establish at start treatment, 3D...

PurposeThe POP-ART RT study aims to determine what extent and how intrafractional real-time respiratory motion management (RRMM), plan adaptation for interfractional anatomical changes (ART) are used in clinical practice understand barriers implementation. Here we report on part II: ART using more than one per target treatment course.Materials methodsA questionnaire the current of ART, wishes expansion or implementation, implementation was distributed worldwide. Four types were...

PurposeTo compare transarterial chemoembolization delivered with drug eluting beads (TACE-DEB) stereotactioc body radiation therapy (SBRT) in patients hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) a multicenter randomized trial.Methods and MaterialsPatients were included if they eligible for TACE. They could also be recruited required treatment prior to liver transplantation. A maximum of four TACE-DEB procedures ablation after incomplete both allowed. SBRT was six fractions 8-9Gy. Primary end point time...
