Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Abstract

SBRT for HCC is well-tolerated even in patients with advanced cirrhosis and prior liver-directed treatment and provides excellent LC even for larger lesions that cannot be controlled with radiofrequency ablation. LC with SBRT compares favorably to other liver-directed therapies. Prospective studies comparing SBRT with other liver-directed therapies are warranted.
