Radiosurgery Treatment for Brain Metastases

Radiosurgery for brain metastases is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused beams of radiation to target and destroy cancer cells in the brain. Unlike traditional surgery, it does not require an incision. This method delivers high doses of radiation precisely to the tumor, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue. Radiosurgery is often used when patients have one or a few metastatic tumors and seek to avoid the risks of open surgery. It can help control tumor growth, alleviate symptoms, and improve quality of life. The procedure is typically performed as an outpatient treatment.
