LINAC Stereotactic Radiosurgery
Stereotactic therapy can be delivered on an adapted standard linear accelerator, such as a Varian Trilogy and TrueBeam, on a helical linear accelerator, called tomotherapy, or on a robotic arm linear accelerator (CyberKnife radiosurgery). This approach delivers massive doses of radiation that are biologically much more effective than standard radiotherapy.
A linear accelerator can be adapted to deliver intracranial stereotactic radiation using a stereotactic frame or a very specialized non-invasive stereotactic mask. Intracranial diagnoses conducive for stereotactic therapy include metastases, trigeminal neuralgia, acoustic neuroma, atriovenous malformation, and some recurrent gliomas.
