Fractionated Radiation Therapy is Born<br />

Fractionated Radiation Therapy<br />
Theoretical Basis: The “4 Rs”<br />
� Reassortment of cells w/ cell cycle<br />
� Repopulation<br />
� Reoxygenation<br />
� Repair of sublethal damage<br />
Note: No Volume Effect!
“Ablative” SRS: Parallel Universe<br />
�Highly accurate<br />
stereotactic localization<br />
�Large number of cross-<br />
fired beams providing <strong>for</strong><br />
steep gradient<br />
& BIG dose….<br />
up to 160 Gy<br />

You have just resected a<br />

Prediction: Brain Metastases<br />
The vast majority will soon be<br />
managed with SRS techniques &<br />
WBXRT will start to vanish
Even GBM???<br />
Maybe multi-session<br />
(hypofractionated) SRS deserves<br />
further investigation<br />
as technique <strong>for</strong><br />
primary irradiation<br />
of GBM?<br />

more?

effectively<br />
� Multimodality imaging provides<br />
complimentary in<strong>for</strong>mation needed to<br />
accurately define tumor volume<br />
