Summary: This practical guideÂ{u3BF6}ers the basicÂ{u0873}pects of stereotactic radiotherapy systems and treatment. As an emerging field, stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) offers image-guided radiation that is directed at extremely well-defined tumor targets within the body, delivering very high doses of radiation.Â{u026E}dications for SBRT have expanded extensively in recent years from intracranial treatment to extracranial, leading to the development of a thriving subspecialty within radiation oncology. The expertise on these methods is concentrated across a few centres, mainly in the USA. However, as the technique is increasingly being adopted worldwide, specialists require further training in using it. Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy â€{u2801} Practical Guide provides a valuable aid for this purpose and is of particular interest to clinical oncologists and their trainees.
