Intracranial
Metastasis

Added a Expert Question to , Intracranial Metastasis

Hello,

We have a case of a 43 yrs old female with metastatic brain mets from inflammatory bilateral breast. Last May we treated 15 brain mets with CK. She had an overall great response, but she now presents with 1 new lesion and 1 lesion with progression. Luckily both lesions are in the Frontal lobe and far from any OARs. We were planning to do 30Gy/5fx. Are there any thoughts on a different approach for prescription in this case? What is your clinics policy with retreatment for brain in regard to dose and normal brain constraints?

Thank you and I look forward to any feedback.

Join us in Warsaw on June 24th, 2025, for the Brainlab Central Europe SRS & SBRT Symposium 2025. Experience an inspiring lineup of expert talks and engaging discussions on cutting-edge developments in radiotherapy and radiosurgery.

We’re pleased to host the Advanced Clinical Course “Brain Metastases and Skull-base Tumors” in cooperation with Centre Hospitalier Princesse Grace and the team of Dr. Cécile Ortholan and Benjamin Serrano, PhD.

This Advanced Clinical Course will provide participants with the opportunity to learn from clinical experts about the clinical implementation and requirements for a successful radiosurgery program for brain metastases and skull-base tumors. During the course, medical physicists will learn about specific quality assurance techniques as well as expert tricks for treatment planning with Brainlab radiosurgery software. Radiation oncologists and neurosurgeons will learn about contouring, clinical prescriptions and planning approaches.

Interested? Contact your local Brainlab Sales representative.

*Please note: A Brainlab Academy ticket is needed to be able to attend this course.

You are being invited to take part in a 15-minute survey assessing how radiation therapy and radiosurgery departments (including C-arm Linacs, Gammaknife, CyberKinfe, etc) , utilise MRI fibertracking (also known as MRI tractography) in their practice. (Link below)

This study is being run by Physical Sciences Department of Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Melbourne, Australia.

Upon request, we will provide you with the full anonymised survey results so that you can compare your practice with other participants.  

This project has been approved by the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre Ethics Committee (ethics@petermac.org). 

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to send an email.
