BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The outcome of radiosurgery for vestibular schwannoma
(VS) is assessed by posttreatment measurement of tumor size and could be influenced by …

Object The authors report on a series of 46 patients harboring vestibular schwannomas
(VSs) treated using linear accelerator (LINAC) radiosurgery and an analysis of serial …

OBJECTIVE Gamma Knife surgery (GKS) is a promising treatment modality for patients with
vestibular schwannomas (VSs), but a small percentage of patients have persistent …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gamma knife radiosurgery has become an important
treatment option for vestibular schwannoma. The effect of treatment can be assessed only by …

(VS) correlates with dose reduction and other technical changes to this procedure. The effect …

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to gain insight into the influence of the pretreatment
growth rate on the volumetric tumor response and tumor control rates after Gamma Knife …

Objective Vestibular schwannomas (VSs) are benign, slowly growing tumors. The
management strategy, however, remains unclear for both primary VS and remnant VS after …
