Area of Science:

  • Radiation Oncology
  • Medical Physics

Background:

  • Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) offers precise, high-dose radiation delivery in limited fractions.
  • The complexity of SBRT necessitates clear practice parameters for safe and effective implementation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide updated practice parameters for stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT).
  • To guide physicians and physicists in the application of SBRT.

Main Methods:

  • Revised practice parameter developed collaboratively by the American College of Radiology (ACR) and American Radium Society (ARS).
  • Adherence to the established ACR process for developing practice parameters and technical standards.

Main Results:

  • Key elements of SBRT workflow, personnel qualifications, quality control, and treatment delivery are reviewed.
  • Essential SBRT components include image guidance, immobilization, and motion management.
  • Treatment planning emphasizes minimizing normal tissue dose and maximizing target dose safely.

Conclusions:

  • This parameter offers direction on recommended SBRT components.
  • Serves as a guide for healthcare professionals implementing SBRT.
