Abstract:Stereotactic ablative body radiation therapy (SABR) is a well-established alternative to surgery for early stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). While SABR is typically delivered in 3 to 5 fractions, randomized trials have shown single-fraction SABR to be a reasonable alternative. We present the case of a 66year-old male with history of cholangiocarcinoma who was subsequently diagnosed with peripheral early stage NSCLC and treated in mid-inspiration breath hold (BH) to 34 Gy in 1 fraction on a magnetic res… Show more
