SR Information

[Guest guest]

I have been writing to people for years about SR. Most of their oncs

never heard of it and generally just dispense the stuff they have on

their shelf. I posted several years ago about a Radiation group or

association that has the information on who does the SR aka Conformal

Radiation aka IMRT. I cannot find it, but found this on the IMRT ..

Peacock .. Radiation Therapy Onocology Group 1- The other

manufacturors of machines ..... Varian, Novalis would have similar

information. It is well over four years for me since I completed the

Varian radiation for inoperable liver mets. For newbies on the list ...

the Novalis machine is newer .... see

They have this machine @ MD but not the experience @ University

of Rochester. Hope this helps in some way. Take and God bless. Cliff "

Cliff,

Thanks again for the information. I have been searching around the

Net and locating places with the cyberknife. SR is apparently done

for brain tumors and tremors more places than for the lung or liver.

I'm told that maintaining stillness is or was the problem.
