Article/Chapter Title: | Physics of stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiotherapy |
Abstract: | The use of stereotactic radiotherapy continues to be prevalent in treating cancer patients. Newer techniques have been developed for treatment delivery but also for image guidance. The development of newer techniques requires more rigorous quality assurance procedures. This chapter provides updates on the most recent advancements in the use of stereotactic treatments, including image guidance, quality assurance, and an updated literature review. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2016, 2023. |
