Magnetic Resonance-Guided Laser-Induced Thermal Therapy for the Treatment of Progressive Enhancing Inflammatory Reactions Following Stereotactic Radiosurgery, or PEIRs, for Metastatic Brain Disease

Abstract

LITT is an effective treatment for local control of PEIRs after radiosurgery for metastatic brain disease. When possible, we recommend offering LITT once PEIRs are identified and prior to the initiation of high-dose steroids for symptom relief.
