Radical Irradiation of Extracranial Oligometastases
Ce dossier présente un ensemble d'articles sur l'utilisation et l'efficacité de différentes techniques de radiothérapie en oncologie
Advances in radiotherapy planning and delivery have been used to treat patients with limited metastatic disease. With these techniques, high rates of treated metastasis control and low toxicity have been reported. Some patients have long disease-free intervals after radiotherapy similar to those seen after surgical resection. Ongoing studies will determine the benefit of these irradiation techniques to treat limited metastases, identify appropriate candidates, and assist in integrating these treatments into management strategies for specific diseases.
