Stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) for ventricular tachycardias (VTs) could be an option after failed catheter ablation. In this study, we analysed the long-term efficacy and toxicity of SBRT applied as a bail-out procedure.Patients with structural heart disease unsuccessful ablations VTs underwent SBRT. The planning target volume (PTV) was accurately delineated using exported 3D electroanatomical maps critical part re-entry circuits. This defined by detailed electroanatomic mapping...
Ventricular tachycardia is a frequent cause of mortality after myocardial infarction. Current treatment includes the implantation cardioverter defibrillators and adjunctive therapies, such as catheter ablation or cardiac surgery. In patients where standard fails, preclinical data showed that radiosurgery ectopic substrate might be viable option. Authors present case report in patient with malignant ventricular tachycardia. The stereotactic system, CyberKnife, was used; applied dose 25 Gy one...
Stereotactic arrhythmia radiotherapy (STAR) has been proposed recently in patients with refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT).
Key Teaching Points•Cardiac fibromas are relatively frequently associated with ventricular tachycardias, often of multiple morphologies.•Management arrhythmias in unresectable could be challenging and various strategies may employed.•Stereotactic radiosurgery considered case failure conventional approaches such as catheter or surgical ablation. •Cardiac
In patients with recurrent ventricular tachycardia (VT), STereotactic Arrhythmia Radioablation (STAR) shows promising results. The STOPSTORM.eu consortium was established to investigate and harmonise STAR treatment in Europe. primary goals of this benchmark study were standardise contouring organs at risk (OAR) for STAR, including detailed substructures the heart, accredit each participating centre.Centres within asked delineate 31 OAR three cases. Delineation reviewed by expert panel after...
(Abstracted from Lancet Oncol 2023;24:468–482) An estimated 660,000 new cases of cervical cancer were reported globally in 2022, with 350,000 deaths attributable to the disease. Eternal beam radiotherapy concurrent chemotherapy and subsequent brachytherapy is current standard care, few advances have been made recent years increase effectiveness treatments for cancer.
This intervention pilot case series assessed 40-Gy stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) neuromodulation applied to the bilateral stellate ganglion (SG) as a bailout procedure for patients with refractory angina pectoris (RAP). The local institutional review board approved this feasibility study. In three RAP, after repeated good response, symptoms were temporarily relieved anaesthetic blockade of left SG under ultrasound guidance. Radiosurgical dose 40 Gy in one fraction was used more permanent...
To analyse and optimize the interobserver agreement for gross target volume (GTV) delineation on cardiac computed tomography (CCT) based electroanatomical mapping (EAM) data acquired to guide radiotherapy ventricular tachycardia (VT).Electroanatomical were exported merged with segmented CCT using manual registration by two observers. A GTV was created both observers predefined left (LV) areas preselected endocardial EAM points indicating a two-dimensional (2D) surface area of interest. The...
