Streamlining the Workflow of Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) on Tomotherapy: Experience from a Tertiary Care Centre from India

Abstract

Brain metastasis has become a major concern in the oncology fraternity. The use of conventional treatment approaches such as single-fraction stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT), or whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) has been widely explored. Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has been widely used and known for its high efficiency and low toxicity. SRS on tomotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment approach at our centre. In the advent of multidisciplinary care, developing and implementing targeted treatment approaches for cancer patients, SRS has proven to be highly effective and efficient. We report our first experience of brain metastases in a known case of breast cancer treated with SRS on tomotherapy in a tertiary cancer centre in India.
