Neurosurgery
. 2012 Jul;
71(4):893-9.
PMID: 22791027
Background: It has been well established that Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKS) is an effective treatment for brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Objective: To evaluate complete obliteration rates for magnetic resonance imaging...

J Neurosurg
. 2010 Dec;
114(6):1585-91.
PMID: 21166567
Object: As a strategy to delay or avoid whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) after resection of a brain metastasis, the authors used high-resolution MR imaging and cavity-directed radiosurgery for the detection and...

Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys
. 2010 Oct;
81(4):1059-65.
PMID: 20932665
Purpose: Repeat gamma knife stereotactic radiosurgery (GKRS) for recurrent or persistent trigeminal neuralgia induces an additional response but at the expense of an increased incidence of facial numbness. The present...

Technol Cancer Res Treat
. 2007 Mar;
6(2):123-6.
PMID: 17375974
Because of geometrical limitations in the helmet of the Leksell Gamma Knife(Elekta Corp., Atlanta, GA, USA) certain regions within the cranium cannot be targeted for treatment. We describe a method...

. 2006 Dec;
105 Suppl:75-8.
PMID: 18503334
Object: Salvage treatment of large, symptomatic brain metastases after failure of whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) remains challenging. When these lesions require resection, there are few options to lower expected rates of...
