The aim of the International Stereotactic Radiosurgery Society (ISRS) is to promote technical developments in stereotactic radiosurgery on the highest level of clinical experience based on clinical investigations. In this volume, high-quality peer-reviewed papers from the 8th International Stereotactic Radiosurgery Society meeting held in San Francisco 2007 are presented. The reports include new studies on physics, imaging and radiobiology in radiosurgery as well as the latest research in the field of cranial radiosurgery on benign tumors, malignant tumors and vascular malformations. Further articles cover new investigations in the practice on spinal and body radiosurgery. This publication is of special interest to neurosurgeons, radiation oncologists and medical physicists who require precise information to keep up to date with the important developments on the use of stereotactic radiosurgery.
A vivid and detailed reconstruction of the costume worn in England before the arrival of the Norman conquerers.
Presents the technical aspects of IMRT, and the clinical aspects of planning and delivery. The volulme explores a practical approach for radiation oncologists and medical physicists initiating or expanding and IMRT program, the fundamental biology and physics of IMRT, a site-by-site review of IMRT techniques with clinical examples, and reviews of published outcome studies.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention, MICCAI 2001, held in Utrecht, The Netherlands, in October 2001. The 122 revised papers and 136 posters presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 338 submissions. The book offers topical sections on image-guided surgery; shape analysis, segmentation, computer-aided diagnosis; registration; simulation, planning and modeling; visualization; quantitative image analysis; medical robotics and devices; visualization and augmented reality; and time series analysis.
NovalisĀ® Shaped Beam Radiosurgery has set new standards by delivering highly precise radiation treatments to tumors anywhere in the body through the use of a proprietary multileaf collimator. By shaping the radiation beam to the exact contours of the tumor or lesion, Novalis permits maximum dose delivery to the entire tumor while protecting healthy tissue; this makes it eminently suitable for the treatment of irregularly shaped tumors. This book provides a complete guide to radiosurgery treatments with Novalis. After a thorough discussion of the clinical and technical basis for Shaped Beam Radiosurgery, current clinical applications are considered in detail, including brain, body, skull base, and spinal tumors as well as arteriovenous malformations. Careful consideration is also given to future developments and applications, including new technologies that promise to offer even more accurate treatments. This state-of-the-art book will appeal to a wide audience of physicians and their multidisciplinary clinical and technical collaborators.
