Gorovets D, Ayala-Peacock D, Tybor D, Rava P, Ebner D, Cielo D, et al.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys . 2017 Jan; 97(2):246-253. PMID: 28068233
Purpose: Optimal patient selection for stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) as the initial treatment for brain metastases is complicated and controversial. This study aimed to develop a nomogram that predicts survival without...

World Neurosurg . 2016 Nov; 98:266-272. PMID: 27838432
Background: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) alone is an attractive option for treatment of brain metastases. SRS avoids whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT)-associated morbidity, but is limited by regional central nervous system (CNS) failures...

Oncotarget . 2015 Oct; 6(35):38421-8. PMID: 26472106
Background: Many meningiomas are identified by imaging and followed, with an assumption that they are WHO Grade I tumors. The purpose of our investigation is to find clinical or imaging...

J Clin Neurosci . 2015 Jul; 22(10):1650-4. PMID: 26209921
We evaluated patient outcomes following stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS)-treatment of large brain metastasis (⩾3 cm) at our institution. SRS is an established treatment for limited brain metastases. However, large tumors pose...

Gorovets D, Rava P, Ebner D, Tybor D, Cielo D, Puthawala Y, et al.
Front Oncol . 2015 Jun; 5:110. PMID: 26029666
Purpose: To identify predictors for prolonged survival free from salvage whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) in patients with brain metastases treated with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) as their initial radiotherapy approach....

Rava P, Sioshansi S, DiPetrillo T, Cosgrove R, Melhus C, Wu J, et al.
Pract Radiat Oncol . 2014 Nov; 5(1):e37-44. PMID: 25413429
Purpose: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) represents a treatment option for patients with brain metastases from small cell lung cancer (SCLC) following prior cranial radiation. Inferior local control has been described. We...

J Neurosurg . 2013 May; 119(2):457-62. PMID: 23662828
Object: The goal of this study was to evaluate outcomes in patients with ≥ 10 CNS metastases treated with Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery (GK-SRS). Methods: Patients with ≥ 10 brain...

Nutr Metab (Lond) . 2012 Feb; 9:14. PMID: 22353470
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) was first identified as a major cellular protein capable of transferring neutral lipids between membrane vesicles. Its role as an essential chaperone for the biosynthesis...

Brachytherapy . 2011 Oct; 11(5):402-7. PMID: 21996539
Purpose: Advantages for electronic brachytherapy (EBT) of the vaginal cuff include decreased physical dose to the bladder and rectum. Here we compare (192)Ir with EBT using biological effective dose (BED)...
