Abstract:
This article describes the technical aspects and the clinical results of conventional radiotherapy and modern stereotactic radiotherapy for pituitary adenomas. Systematic review of the published literature provides a factual basis for the comparison and the selection of appropriate radiation technique in patients who have secreting and nonfunctioning pituitary adenomas not cured with surgery and medical therapy.
