I am particularly excited about the research we are undertaking
regarding the use of Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for patients with six to
twenty brain metastases.
Currently, these patients are generally relegated to whole brain
radiation, which can have adverse cognitive and functional side
effects. Our research
suggests that these patients can have a much better quality of life
with Gamma Knife radiosurgery even if they have six or more lesions.
This finding should change care for thousands of people with
metastatic disease to the brain every year.
