Abstract

For brain metastases up to 2 centimetres, single-session stereotactic radiosurgery is well-established. However, increasing radiation dosage for larger neoplasms is hindered by po-tential brain tissue damage, while reducing it heightens tumour recurrence risk. A possible solution lies in hypofractionated stereotactic radiosurgery (HSRS) which administers ap-proximately 30 Gy over 3-5 sessions, and hypofractionated adaptive radiosurgery (HARS) which features dynamic treatment plan adjustments between sessions.
