This book serves as a practical guide for the use of stereotactic
body radiation therapy in clinics. On the basis of more than 10
years of clinical experience with lung cancer, liver cancer and
other cancers, a remarkable volume of knowledge has been
accumulated. At the same time, great progress in techniques has
been achieved. Various new fixing apparatuses, new respiratory
regulation techniques, new dose fractionation schedules and new
image-guided radiation therapy machines have been developed. This
book reviews the history of those developments and reports on
various types of toxicities. Review of recent clinical studies is
also included. The authors were key members of the JCOG 0403
clinical trials on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for
both inoperable and operableT1N0M0 primary lung cancer. Readers
will learn of the superior outcomes obtained with SBRT for lung
cancer and other cancers in terms of local control and toxicities.
With its practical focus, this book will benefit radiation
oncologists, medical physicists, medical dosimetrists, radiation
therapists and senior nurses as well as medical oncologists and
surgical oncologists who are interested in radiotherapy.
