Novalis LINAC Radiosurgery and Radiotherapy for Chordomas and Chondrosarcomas of the Skull Base


Jason Hauptman, MD, from the University of California Los Angeles discusses their study of Novalis linear accelerator radiosurgery and radiotherapy for skull base chordomas and chondrosarcomas. He begins by giving an overview of chordomas, which are benign but locally invasive and difficult to treat. He goes into studies examining their treatment with radiosurgery. He then delves into the study completed by the UCLA neurosurgery department, including rationale, methods and results.
