Carmelo Tuscano, Radiation Oncologist at Metropolitan Hospital in Reggio Calabria, shared a post on X:
“More than a review: a mini-treatise on spinal oncology.
Two crucial lessons for radiation oncologists:
- SBRT patient selection must be driven by SINS stability criteria.
- The thecal sac may represent a ‘natural PRV’ for spinal cord constraints.
Outstanding clinical insights!
We should stress the need to implement an intelligent strategy for spinal cord constraints, considering a safety structure that the Sunnybrook school identifies with the thecal sac – essentially a sort of natural PRV.”
