Background: Radiation-induced changes (RICs) post-stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) critically influence outcomes in arteriovenous malformation (AVM) treatments. This study aimed to identify predictors of RICs, described the types and severity of RICs, and assessed their impact on patient's ...
For IORT given as protracted irradiation with Intrabeam, the L-Q model predicts that SLD repair should reduce the biological effect of higher doses [9,70]. Since protracted IORT with Intrabeam typically requires 20–50 min, only recovery within this post-irradiation time frame is relevant. Split...
For the non-uniform dose distribution of isotropic LEX, radiobiological modelling of local control for tumour-bed IORT of the breast suggested that inactivation of recurrence-forming foci close to the applicator surface was more efficient than for external-beam radiotherapy (EBRT) with a uniform dose...

Purpose Primarily, gamma knife centers are predominant in publishing results on arteriovenous malformations (AVM) treatments including reports on risk profile. However, many patients are treated using a linear accelerator—most of these at smaller centers. Because this setting is different from a large...
