- W56339914 abstract "Radiosurgery, a term coined in 1951 by the Swedish neurosurgeon Lars Leksell [1], was first practiced using an orthovoltage x-ray apparatus, then a particle accelerator and finally a Co-60 isotope unit. The majority of Leksell’s clinical work was carried out using the latter device, known as the Gamma Knife. With this dedicated tool Leksell was able to pioneer many radiosurgical procedures. By the mid-1980s only a handful of GammaKnife’s existed, limiting the application of this new technique. By the 1980s the linear accelerators had, for the most part, replaced Cobalt-60 units for routine radiation therapy. In the mid 1980s researchers began to adapt linacs as radiosurgical tools [2–4]. These developments had immediate effects on the field of radiosurgery. Once the successful application of the linac based radiosurgery paradigm, was demonstrated, hundreds of radiation oncologists and neurosurgeons found that their facilities could purchase the necessary hardware and software to upgrade their linac making them radiosurgery capable. Surprisingly, this upgrade could be accomplished for a tenth the cost of the Gamma Knife. In less then a decade the number of radiosurgical units worldwide went from fewer than half a dozen to hundreds. As radiation oncologists became more involved in the day-to-day use of radiosurgical techniques, they realized that stereotactic techniques had application beyond the traditional neurosurgical procedures pioneered by Leksell. These applications were both intra and extra cranial. Many of the new extra cranial applications required" @default.
