Novel Approach of Linear Accelerator-Based Stereotactic Radiosurgery in an Adult Patient With Brain Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report and Clinical Outcome
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a proven strategy for treating the central nervous system arteriovenous malformation (AVM). We intend to present a case of cerebral AVM in an adult patient, successfully treated with a linear accelerator (LINAC) based SRS using simplified setup techniques and an ad...
