Dose coverage impacts local control in ultra-central lung oligometastases treated with stereotactic radiotherapy

The use of Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) is controversial in Ultra-Central lung tumors, a subset of central lung tumors characterized by proximity to critical mediastinal structures. This is of interest in oligometastatic (≤3 metastases) patients, who can yield survival benefit from local treatments. The aim of our study is to assess the determinants of efficacy and toxicity in this setting. Clinical and dosimetric parameters were...
