Stereotactic Radiosurgery  

What is stereotactic radiosurgery?

Stereotactic radiosurgery is a very focused type of radiation treatment of cancers in regions of the body where surgery could hurt the function of necessary organs (such as the brain and spinal cord) and for cancer patients whose overall medical condition prohibits surgery.

In stereotactic radiosurgery, high doses of radiation are focused on the tumor, whereas exposure of surrounding normal tissue to radiation is limited.
