ABSTRACT
Stereotactic radiotherapy represents a fundamental change in the practice of radiotherapy of lung cancers. Despite the great heterogeneity of sites, techniques, and doses, most studies found a high local control rate, around 70 to 90% at 2 years, and reduced toxicity, around 5% of grade 3 at 2 years. Stereotactic radiotherapy can be realized either by a dedicated accelerator (CyberKnife®) or by a conventional accelerator associated with specific systems. The two modalities deliver a very precise irradiation whose very good results published to date are similar. Some technical characteristics specific to each type of linear accelerator could guide the choice according to the target volume treated.
