The aim is not simply to explain the application of SRS and document its value with reference to the author's own clinical experiences and other published evidence, but also to contextualize the technology within a new strategic concept of cancer care. When embedded within an appropriate conceptual framework, technology becomes pivotal in changing therapeutic strategies. A new paradigm that is increasingly impacting on clinical practice is the oligometastatic state, on the basis that long-term survival might be achieved in patients with a low volume and number of metastatic lesions. This book accordingly addresses the value of SRS in patients with oligometastases of solid tumors to the brain, lung, spine, and liver. In addition, it examines the use of SRS in patients with diverse brain lesions, early-stage stage lung cancer, liver cancer, and early-stage prostate cancer. Readers will be persuaded that SRS, using cutting-edge imaging technologies to deliver precisely targeted radiation therapy, represents an exciting non-invasive procedure that holds great promise for the present and the future of cancer care. 606 $aRadiotherapy 606 $aNeurosurgery 606 $aSurgical oncology 606 $aRadiotherapy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H29056 606 $aNeurosurgery$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H39000 606 $aSurgical Oncology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H59150 615 0$aRadiotherapy. 615 0$aNeurosurgery. 615 0$aSurgical oncology. 615 14$aRadiotherapy. 615 24$aNeurosurgery. 615 24$aSurgical Oncology. 676 $a615.842 700 $aBadakhshi$b Harun$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01060404 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254270703321 996 $aImage-Guided Stereotactic Radiosurgery$92513371 997 $aUNINA
