Article Title: | Stereotactic body radiation therapy for spinal malignancies |
Abstract: | Stereotactic body radiation therapy and stereotactic radiosurgery have become important treatment options for the treatment of spinal malignancies. A better understanding of dose tolerances with more conformal technology have allowed administration of higher and more ablative doses. In this review, the framework for approaching a patient with spinal metastases and primary tumors will be discussed as well as details on the delivery of this treatment. |
