How Does SBRT Differ from Conventional Radiotherapy?
Conventional radiotherapy typically involves administering lower doses of radiation over a more extended period, often weeks. In contrast, SBRT delivers very high doses of radiation in fewer treatment sessions, usually between 1 to 5 sessions. The precision of SBRT is achieved through advanced imaging techniques, such as CT, MRI, and PET scans, which allow for accurate tumor mapping and targeting.
