Modeling Gamma Knife Radiosurgical Toxicity for Multiple Brain Metastases

CONCLUSION: Surface area was the most accurate univariate predictor of V12 for metastatic lesions. We developed a preplan model for brain metastases that can help better estimate radionecrosis risk, determine prescription doses given a target V12, and provide safe dose escalation strategies without the use of any planning software.PMID:37640162 | DOI:10.1016/j.radonc.2023.109874
