Using SRS for Brain and Spine Cancers - SLUCare Radiation Oncology

Instead of using radiation therapy to a large area, stereotactic radiosurgery uses anatomy to focus the radiation very precisely only to the target and spares the surrounding tissue. This allows the targeting of tissue that previously wasn't possible such as brain tumors and cancers as well as spine cancers. SLUCare Neurosurgeon Dr. Richard Bucholz discusses the process and more.
