FSRT vs. SRS in Brain Metastases—Differences in Local Control and Radiation Necrosis—A Volumetric Study

FSRT vs. SRS in Brain Metastases—Differences in Local Control and Radiation Necrosis—A Volumetric Study

Background: While the role of stereotactic radiotherapy for brain metastases is increasing, evidence on the comparative efficacy and safety of fractionated stereotactic radiotherapy (FSRT) and single-session radiosurgery (SRS) is scarce.Methods: Longitudinal volumetric analysis was performed in a co...
