Comparative survival in patients with brain metastases from non-small-cell lung cancer treated before and after implementation of radiosurgery.
Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Survival after a diagnosis of brain metastasis in non-small-cell lung cancer (nsclc) is generally poor. We previously reported a median survival of approximately 4 months in a cohort of patients treated with whole-brain radiotherapy (wbrt).
