Robotic stereotactic body radiation therapy for tumours of the liver: Radiation-induced liver disease, incidence and predictive factors.

CONCLUSION: Using robotic stereotactic body radiation therapy, the incidence of radiation-induced liver disease is weak and spontaneously reversible. Prospective studies are required to put in evidence other predictive factors of radiation-induced liver disease and confirm the optimal dose treatment.
