Abstract
Radiation is a common treatment modality for cancer. Although commonly used, the treatment techniques of radiation delivery have changed substantially. One of the most important changes in implementation is the widespread application of stereotactic techniques and their acceptance into the mainstream of radiotherapeutic delivery. The distinguishing characteristics of stereotactic radiosurgery and its current and future application are important for all physicians to understand. This article discusses these treatment techniques and applications from the perspective of a surgical oncologist.
