Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Small Lung Tumors in the University of Tokyo Hospital

Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy for Small Lung Tumors in the University of Tokyo Hospital

Our work on stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for primary and metastatic lung tumors will be described. The eligibility criteria for SBRT, our previous SBRT method, the definition of target volume, heterogeneity correction, the position adjustment using four-dimensional cone-beam computed t...
