Abstract
It is feasible and safe to deliver single-fraction, high-dose SBRT to primary or metastatic liver malignancies measuring â¤5 cm. Moreover, single-fraction SBRT for liver lesions demonstrated promising local tumor control with minimal acute and long-term toxicity. Single-fraction SBRT appears to be a viable nonsurgical option, but further studies are warranted to evaluate both control rates and impact on quality of life.
