Stereotactic Radiation Therapy (SRT) is a highly precise form of radiation treatment that delivers a high dose of radiation directly to a tumor while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues. It uses detailed imaging, such as CT, MRI, or PET scans, to locate the tumor very accurately.
SRT is usually given in a small number of sessions (sometimes even just one) and is especially useful for treating small tumors or tumors located in sensitive areas like the brain, lungs, spine, or liver.
A single high-dose radiation session, mainly used for brain and spinal tumors.
A few high-dose sessions for tumors in the body, such as in the lungs or liver.
