2. WHAT IS SRS/SBRT?
• Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) uses many precisely
focused radiation beams to treat tumors and other
problems in the brain, neck, lungs, liver, spine and
other parts of the body.
• It is not surgery in the traditional sense because
there's no incision.
• SRS is for cranial
• SBRT for extracranial

3. THE DIFFERNCE CONVENTIONAL VS STEREOTAXY
E. H. Balagamwala/Technology in Cancer Research and Treatment/2012 3
6. • Massive vascular damage causes indirect tumor death-it is endothelial cell
inflammation and apoptosis via the sphingomyelin pathway causing
subsequent microvascular dysfunction that are the triggers for tumor cell
death
• 4 r of radiobiology in different manner
• No Repair after ablative dose
• Treatment is for short period no chance of Repopulation
• No Reoxygenation of hypoxic cells due to massive vascular destruction by
SRS/SBRT
• Redistribution dose not happen as more cells die because of massive cell
death
• Massive immunogenic reaction
• Abscopal effect
RADIOBIOLOGY BEHIND STEROTAXY

7. The spectrum
• SRS
– Smaller lesion usually less than 3 cm.
– Single fraction
• FRACTIONATED SRS
– Relatively larger tumor
– 1 to 5 fractions
• SRT
– Larger tumor usually more than 3 cm
– Close to vital structures

9. The wide spectrum
Cranial
– Metastasis
• De novo
• After WBRT
– Arteriovenous malformation
– Vestibular schwannoma
– Reirradiation glioma
– Glomus jugularae
– Hamartoma
– Cavernoma
– Meningioma
– Trigeminal neuralgia
– Tremor
– Epilepsy
Extracranial
– Bone metastasis
– Prostate
– Lung primary/ metastasis
– Pancreas
– Adrenal metastasis
– Liver metastasis/HCC
– Spine metastasis
– Nodal recurrence
– Head and neck reirradiation

• Benign cases -- Months to years
• Functional cases -- Days
• Different criteria for different tumors e.g
– RECIST
– PERCIST
– RANO
– And many more
