<strong>SBRT</strong> Registry Study<br />

Lung<br />

Peripheral Lesions<br />

• Three fractions: 60 Gy (20 Gy per fraction) (Based on RTOG 0618)<br />

Central Lesions<br />

• Five fractions: 50 Gy (10 Gy per fraction) (Based on RTOG 0813)<br />

For Lung cases, it is often necessary to have non-coplanar<br />

beams to achieve fast dose fall off.<br />

We use three partial arc VMAT technique<br />

Each arc at least 100 degree<br />

Non-coplanar couch angle up to 20 degree<br />

Non-coplanar multiple IMRT or 3DCRT beams can be also<br />

used.
