  • Visual field preservation after multisession cyberknife radiosurgery for perioptic lesions.

    Adler JR, Gibbs IC, Puataweepong P, Chang SD. Neurosurgery. 2006; 59 (2): 244-54; discussion 244-54

    The restricted radiation tolerance of the anterior visual pathways represents a unique challenge for ablating adjacent lesions with single-session radiosurgery. Although preliminary studies have recently demonstrated that multisession radiosurgery for selected perioptic tumors is both safe and effective, the number of patients in these clinical series was modest and the length of follow-up limited. The current retrospective study is intended to help address these shortcomings.
