Abstract
In stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT), extracranial primary tumors or metastases are treated with high doses of radiation in a few fractions. The precise and accurate delivery of multiple radiation beams to the target maximizes tumor cell death while keeping the dose to the surrounding normal tissue to a minimum. Much of the technology to overcome the barriers to applying this treatment to moving tumors was developed in Japan. This review defines SBRT and presents the history of its technical development for safe and effective administration, as well as the clinical results of using SBRT to treat early-stage non-small cell lung cancer and lung metastases.
