摘要
Radiosurgery for lung cancer is a novel and promising concept that warrants thorough review. Stereotactic body radiotherapy enables the selective delivery of an intense dose of high-energy radiation to destroy a tumor with precise targeting. The radiobiology and physics behind the use of radiosurgery are presented, followed by a discussion of promising retrospective and prospective clinical data that has been reported from Japan, Europe, and the United States. The article closes with a discussion of multidisciplinary approaches that include radiosurgery which are on the therapeutic horizon.
