Stereotactic Radiosurgery

American Society for Radiation Oncology has issued a guideline on use of radiation therapy to treat patients with brain metastases.

The American Society for Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery released a position statement supporting the use of magnetic resonance-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy.

Stereotactic radiosurgery conferred equivalent OS as whole-brain radiation but with less cognitive decline in patients with four or more nonmelanoma brain metastases, according to study results presented at the virtual ASTRO Annual Meeting.
