Linear Accelerator (LINAC) Radiosurgical Management of Brain Arteriovenous Malformations: An Experience From a Tertiary Care Center
LINAC-based SRS demonstrates comparable efficacy to other modalities for treating cerebral AVMs, with obliteration rates influenced by dose, AVM volume, and pre-treatment radiosurgery score. Larger AVMs pose a greater challenge, suggesting a need for adjunctive treatments or higher fractionated doses to improve outcomes.
