Event: 4th International Conference of the Novalis Circle 2008
Topic: Intracranial metastasis
Year: 2008

Christos Boskos, MD, (presented by his colleague Alessandra Gorgulho) from the neurosurgery department at UCLA, Los Angeles, discusses the volumetric analyses they completed of 117 melanoma brain metastases that were treated with stereotactic radiosurgery.
