DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2020.09.058
Abstract: Application of radiosurgery to the newly diagnosed or post-operative residual perioptic lesions has been proved to improve tumor control. However, risk of vision injury induced by radiosurgery may increase substantially if the radiation dose is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.prro.2020.03.013
Abstract: BACKGROUND Conventional radiotherapy (RT) to pediatric brain tumors exposes a large volume of normal brain to unwarranted radiation causing late toxicity. We hypothesized that in well demarcated pediatric tumors lacking microscopic extensions, fractionated stereotactic RT… read more here.

DOI: 10.21873/anticanres.16443
Abstract: Background/Aim: Fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) is increasingly used for brain metastases. We investigated higher-dose FSRT with biologically effective doses (BED) of 49.6-66.7 Gy12. Patients and Methods: Eleven characteristics were evaluated for local control (LC), overall… read more here.
