Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS)

Definition

Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a non-invasive medical treatment that uses precisely targeted, high-dose radiation beams to destroy tumors or other abnormalities in the brain, spine, and other parts of the body. It is an alternative to traditional surgery and can be used for patients who are not suitable for conventional surgery or as a complementary treatment to other therapies.
