Given high local tumor control & low adverse radiation effect rates, study suggests stereotactic radiosurgery a strong candidate for non-invasive management of sarcomatous brain metastases. mdpi.com/2072-6694/17/1… @Elekta @PittNeurosurg @hadjiMDPhD @PittHealthSci @UPMCPhysicianEd
Stereotactic radiosurgery is an effective management for brain metastases from gynecological cancers with low risks of symptomatic adverse radiation effects. journals.lww.com/neurosurgery/a… @UPMCPhysicianEd @PittCIGNS

Stereotactic radiosurgery is safe and effective in managing small to medium sized superior sagittal sinus invading meningiomas, especially when the tumors involve the posterior one-third of the SSS. journals.lww.com/neurosurgery/a… @weizhishuo @hadjiMDPhD @Elekta @IntRRF
New in Neurosurgery: Our 22-year study of 248 patients shows that primary Gamma Knife SRS offers long-term tumor control comparable to salvage SRS for meningiomas invading the superior sagittal sinus. @DKondziolkaCNS @PittCIGNS @PittNeurosurg #Neurosurgery #Meningioma #GammaKnife
Stereotactic radiosurgery offers an effective treatment of intracranial hemangioblastomas—whether von Hippel–Lindau associated or sporadic—with a favorable risk profile in an international, multicenter study. journals.lww.com/neurosurgery/a…

SRS as potential first-line intervention for symptomatic low-grade dAVFs? 👉 Check out the collaborative effort by CONDOR and @IntRRF - bit.ly/4ksqgQt. Excellent work by my fellow @abega95 before she joins @UofLNeurosurg for her residency!
Great team work .. @PittNeurosurg @PittCIGNS @hadjiMDPhD @DKondziolkaCNS @jasonpsheehan @RimshaShariff @ibrahemalbalkhi
