Abstract (sommario):
Radiosurgery using the Linear Accelerator or the Gamma Knife has proven to be an effective treatment modality for malignant brain tumors. In comparison to other treatments, radiosurgery can be performed on an outpatient basis and is noninvasive (Table 5). Due to the functional properties of radiosurgical devices, they are ideal for patients who are unable to undergo surgical removal of their brain tumors. The sharp dose drop—off beyond the tumor margin allows for high dosage tumor irradiation while sparing normal brain tissue. Many procedures that involve radiosurgery use it as a ”boost” therapy in conjunction with surgical resection and whole brain irradiation. ”Boost" therapy enhances the standard treatment procedure for malignant brain tumors. Unfortunately, radiosurgery is not always able to halt the progression of malignant brain tumors. Patients with metastatic brain tumors usually succumb to systemic disease. Patients who have gliomas generally die due to the inability of local tumor control. However, the use of radiosurgery can contribute to increasing a patient’s quality of life. Often, treatment is followed by a decrease in corticosteroid administration and an improvement in a patient's neurological status. The future directions of radiosurgery could include the development and implementation of a randomized studies to determine a dose-volume protocol for gliomas and the different forms of metastases. Also, an investigation should be undertaken to determine whether the use of high (50 Gy or more) radiosurgical doses as the only treatment for gliomas and cerebral metastases would prove to be a more effective use than ”boost” therapy.

Abstract (sommario):
The aim of stereotactic radiosurgery is to deliver a high and uniform radiation dose to the target volume and a minimized dose to the surrounding healthy tissue. Various linac-based radiosurgical techniques are used clinically: multiple non-coplanar converging arcs, dynamic arc rotation, and conical rotation. The techniques differ in their beam distribution over the patient's head.
A study of the beam distribution characteristics for the clinical linac-based radiosurgical techniques is presented. Two spiral linac-based radiosurgical techniques are developed: the uniform dose-rate spiral irradiation and the dose-rate-weighted spiral irradiation. Both exhibit the same spiraling beam entry trace over the patient's head; however, they differ in their beam distribution along the spiral. The dose-rate-weighted spiral irradiation provides a uniform beam distribution over the 2pi solid angle available in radiosurgery.
The currently existing techniques and the spiral techniques are then compared using the cumulative dose-volume histogram (CDVH) tools available with the McGill Treatment Planning System (MPS). The dose-rate-weighted spiral technique leads to lower dose inhomogeneities within the target volume and better dose conformity within the target. Moreover, it also encompasses smaller volumes of tissue at all isodose levels with larger differences at low isodose levels. A conclusion is reached that the dose-rate-weighted spiral irradiation technique offers interesting advantages over the currently used clinical linac-based techniques.

Abstract (sommario):
An on-line beam to target portal verification technique has been developed for stereotactic radiosurgery. Conventional radiosurgery employs a stereotactic frame in order to obtain sufficient spatial accuracy in dose delivery. Frame based verification methods attempt to ensure accurate target positioning with respect to the frame but they do not account for possible movement of the frame with respect to the anatomy and isocenter. We account for this possibility by superimposing digitally reconstructed radiographs (DRRs) over orthogonal edge detected digital portal image pairs. By developing a process for interactively manipulating the CT-data in three dimensions (rotations and translations) new DRRs are generated and overlaid with orthogonal portal images. This method is able to account for ambiguities in matching due to rotations and translations outside the imaging plane because of the availability of DRRs at any possible orientation. This matching procedure is performed using only the anatomy and is used in tandem with a fiducial marker array attached to the stereotactic frame. The method is evaluated using portal images simulated from patient CT-data and then tested using a radiographic head phantom. Results show that repositioning precision of the system is at the level required by stereotactic radiosurgery.

Abstract (sommario):
Brain metastases occur in 20–40% of cancer patients. The main methods of treatment are neurosurgical intervention, radiation therapy, and stereotactic radiosurgery is actively developing. The advantage of radiosurgery is non-invasiveness, the effectiveness of exposure to foci and the low probability of radiation reactions after treatment. However, in patients with a tumor volume exceeding 3 centimeters in diameter, with radiosurgical doses (>18 Gy), the risk of post-radiation complications is subsequently high, therefore radiosurgical methods of hypofractionation and staged radiosurgery are increasingly used. The research included a group of patients (46 people) who underwent treatment by the method of staged radiosurgery and a group of patients (27 people) who underwent hypofractionation. The clinical study was conducted at the Leksell Gamma Knife Icon installation (Stockholm, Sweden). The summed dose was in the range from 16 to 30 Gy. The purpose of research: to study and compare the results of the use of hypofractionation methods and staged radiosurgery for brain metastases.

Abstract (sommario):
Objective. This evidence report synthesizes the available evidence on radiation therapy for brain metastases. Data sources. We searched PubMed®, Embase®, Web of Science, Scopus, CINAHL®, clinicaltrials.gov, and published guidelines in July 2020; assessed independently submitted data; consulted with experts; and contacted authors. Review methods. The protocol was informed by Key Informants. The systematic review was supported by a Technical Expert Panel and is registered in PROSPERO (CRD42020168260). Two reviewers independently screened citations; data were abstracted by one reviewer and checked by an experienced reviewer. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and large observational studies (for safety assessments), evaluating whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone or in combination, as initial or postoperative treatment, with or without systemic therapy for adults with brain metastases due to non-small cell lung cancer, breast cancer, or melanoma. Results. In total, 97 studies, reported in 190 publications, were identified, but the number of analyses was limited due to different intervention and comparator combinations as well as insufficient reporting of outcome data. Risk of bias varied; 25 trials were terminated early, predominantly due to poor accrual. Most studies evaluated WBRT, alone or in combination with SRS, as initial treatment; 10 RCTs reported on post-surgical interventions. The combination treatment SRS plus WBRT compared to SRS alone or WBRT alone showed no statistically significant difference in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR], 1.09; confidence interval [CI], 0.69 to 1.73; 4 RCTs; low strength of evidence [SoE]) or death due to brain metastases (relative risk [RR], 0.93; CI, 0.48 to 1.81; 3 RCTs; low SoE). Radiation therapy after surgery did not improve overall survival compared with surgery alone (HR, 0.98; CI, 0.76 to 1.26; 5 RCTs; moderate SoE). Data for quality of life, functional status, and cognitive effects were insufficient to determine effects of WBRT, SRS, or post-surgical interventions. We did not find systematic differences across interventions in serious adverse events radiation necrosis, fatigue, or seizures (all low or moderate SoE). WBRT plus systemic therapy (RR, 1.44; CI, 1.03 to 2.00; 14 studies; moderate SoE) was associated with increased risks for vomiting compared to WBRT alone. Conclusion. Despite the substantial research literature on radiation therapy, comparative effectiveness information is limited. There is a need for more data on patient-relevant outcomes such as quality of life, functional status, and cognitive effects.
